L=5W-8
\n" ); document.write( "PERIMETER=2L+2W
\n" ); document.write( "104=2(5W-8)+2W
\n" ); document.write( "104=10W-16+2W
\n" ); document.write( "12W=104=16
\n" ); document.write( "W=120/12
\n" ); document.write( "W=10 ANSWER FOR THE WIDTH.
\n" ); document.write( "L=5*10-8
\n" ); document.write( "L=42 ANSWER.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "104=2*42+2*10
