\n" ); document.write( "Let the width be w.

\n" ); document.write( "Then the length is 2w+6 (6 more than twice the width).

\n" ); document.write( "The perimeter (twice length plus twice width) is 72:

\n" ); document.write( "\"2%282w%2B6%29%2B2w+=+72\"

\n" ); document.write( "Solve using basic algebra.
