Area A = LW = 105
\n" ); document.write( "We also have L = 2W + 1.
\n" ); document.write( "Now substitute and get
\n" ); document.write( "(2W+1)W = 105
\n" ); document.write( "2W^2 + W - 105 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "Now factor and solve
\n" ); document.write( "(2W + 15)(W - 7) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "so that
\n" ); document.write( "W = 7 feet and
\n" ); document.write( "L = 2W + 1 = 15 feet
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
