\n" ); document.write( "if the length \"L\" is \"2ft\" more than its width \"W\", we have
\n" ); document.write( "\"L=W%2B2ft\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and if the height \"h\" is \"3ft\" less than its width, we have\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"h=W-3ft\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if its volume is \"70ft%5E3\", we have \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"L%2AW%2Ah=70\"....substitute \"L\" and \"h\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28W%2B2%29%2AW%2A%28W-3%29=70\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"W%5E3+-+W%5E2+-+6W=70\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28W+-+5%29+%28W%5E2+%2B+4+W+%2B+14%29+=+0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "one real solution is \"W=5ft\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "then \"L=5ft%2B2ft=7ft\" and \"h=5ft-3ft=2ft\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "check the volume:
\n" ); document.write( "\"7ft%2A5ft%2A2ft=7ft%2A10ft+=70ft%5E3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
