400 length split into x and y.
\n" ); document.write( "Each of these, becomes perimeter x for smaller field, and perimeter y for large field.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Each is square shape, so side length for small field is \"x%2F4\"; side length for large field is \"y%2F4\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28y%2F4%29%5E2=9%2A%28x%2F4%29%5E2\", from second part of the description.
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5E2%2F16=%289%2F16%29x%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5E2=9x%5E2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The original 400 cm length also allows the equation, \"x%2By=400\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve this system for x and y:
\n" ); document.write( "\"system%28x%2By=400%2Cy%5E2=9x%5E2%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"system%28x%2By=400%2Cy=0%2B-+3x%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x-3x=400\"----this option is meaningless.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B3x=400\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x=400\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x=100%29\", \"highlight%28y=300%29\".
