\n" ); document.write( "The length \"L\" of a rectangle is \"2in\" greater than its width \"W\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"L=W%2B2in\"
\n" ); document.write( "The perimeter \"P=2%28L%2BW%29\" is \"36in\", so \"2%28L%2BW%29=36in\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%28L%2BW%29=36in\"....substitute \"L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%28W%2B2in%2BW%29=36in\".....solve for \"W\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28W%2B2in%2BW%29=36in%2F2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2W%2B2in=18in\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2W=18in-2in\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2W=16in\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28W=8in%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "now find \"L\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"L=W%2B2in\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"L=8in%2B2in\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28L=10in%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, the dimensions of the rectangle are: \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the length is \"highlight%2810in%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "the width is \"highlight%288in%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
