Perimeter of a rectangle: P=2l+2w
\n" ); document.write( "w=width of rectangle
\n" ); document.write( "l=length of rectangle; l=w+100\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2*(w+100)+ 2w=1320 mi
\n" ); document.write( "2w+200+2w=1320mi
\n" ); document.write( "4w=1120 mi
\n" ); document.write( "w=280 mi
\n" ); document.write( "l=280+100=380 mi\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
