From the facts we have
\n" ); document.write( "A = B - 190
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "A + B = 1520
\n" ); document.write( "Couple ways to solve this, but let's substitute the first into the second...so
\n" ); document.write( "B - 190 + B = 1520
\n" ); document.write( "2B - 190 = 1520
\n" ); document.write( "2B = 1710
\n" ); document.write( "B = 855 feet
\n" ); document.write( "so that A is 190 shorter or
\n" ); document.write( "A = 665 feet
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
