Hi there \n" ); document.write( "Make the width = 'x' \n" ); document.write( "So, the length = 11 + 2x \n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2 x Length + 2 x Width \n" ); document.write( "94 = 2(11 + 2x) + 2x \n" ); document.write( "94 = 22 + 4x + 2x \n" ); document.write( "Collect like terms \n" ); document.write( "6x = 94 - 22 \n" ); document.write( "6x = 72 \n" ); document.write( "x = 12 \n" ); document.write( "Width = 12 ft \n" ); document.write( "Length = 35 ft \n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps:-) \n" ); document.write( " |
