l= length in cm
\n" ); document.write( "w= width in cm
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "Keep in mind that you can substitute = for the word 'is' in word problems.
\n" ); document.write( "l=3w-4
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter=2w+22
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter=2l+2w
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "Substitute 2l+2w for the perimeter
\n" ); document.write( "2l+2w=2w+22
\n" ); document.write( "2l=22
\n" ); document.write( "l=11
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "Now find w by substitute 11 for l in the first equation.
\n" ); document.write( "11=3w-4
\n" ); document.write( "3w=15
\n" ); document.write( "w=5
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "Answer:
\n" ); document.write( "length- 11 cm
\n" ); document.write( "width- 5 cm
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
