(3 x width of a window) + (2 x distance to edge of house)
\n" ); document.write( "+ (2 x separation of windows) = 33'
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(2 x separation of windows) = 33 - (3 x width of a window)
\n" ); document.write( "+ (2 x distance to edge of house)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(separation of windows) = (1/2)*(33 - (3 x width of a window) - (2 x distance to edge of house))
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "separation of windows = (1/2)*(33 - 3*3 - 2*4)
\n" ); document.write( "separation of windows = (1/2)*(33 - 9 - 8)
\n" ); document.write( "separation of windows = (1/2)*16
\n" ); document.write( "separation of windows = 8' answer
\n" ); document.write( "------------------

\n" ); document.write( "(3 x width of a window) + (2 x distance to edge of house)
\n" ); document.write( "+ (2 x separation of windows) = 33'
\n" ); document.write( "3*3 + 2*4 + 2*8 = 33
\n" ); document.write( "9 + 8 + 16 = 33
\n" ); document.write( "33 = 33
