Let the length of the field be l and its width be w
\n" ); document.write( "From the first statement, \"l+=+2%2Aw+%2B+5\"
\n" ); document.write( " Perimeter of the field is 334 yards
\n" ); document.write( "And perimeter of rectangle = 2*l +2*w = 334\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now substituting for l, \"2%2A+%282%2Aw+%2B+5%29+%2B2%2Aw+=334\"
\n" ); document.write( "4*w+10+2*w = 334
\n" ); document.write( "6*w = 334-10
\n" ); document.write( "6*w = 324,
\n" ); document.write( "w = 324/6 = 54
\n" ); document.write( "Also, l=2*w + 5= 2*54+5= 113
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, the dimensions are (l,b) = (113,54)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
