document.write( "Question 949916: The length of a rectangle is 5 inches longer than the width. The perimeter is between 22 and 43 inches.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A) Write the perimeter as a compound inequality.
\n" ); document.write( "B) Write the width as a compound inequality.

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I know that the perimeter is 22 and 34. I don't know how to get the width or the length.
\n" ); document.write( "I set up the problem:
\n" ); document.write( "x+5+x+5= 22 and 34
\n" ); document.write( "2x+10= 22 and 34

w, width

\n" ); document.write( "L=w+5
\n" ); document.write( "p, perimeter bounded by 22 and 43.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2w%2B2L=p\"
