Perimeter of the rectangle:
\n" ); document.write( "2L+2W = 154 (1)
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "L = 6W Substitute in (1)
\n" ); document.write( "2(6W)+2W = 154
\n" ); document.write( "12W+2W = 154
\n" ); document.write( "14W = 154
\n" ); document.write( "W = 11 So the width is 11 and the length 6(11)= 66
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "2(11)+2(66) =
\n" ); document.write( "= 22+132 = 154 Correct
\n" ); document.write( ":
