The length (L) of the garden is (=) 4 feet more (+) than twice (2 times) the width (W), or:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"L=2W%2B4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The perimeter of a rectangle is \"P=2L+%2B+2W\", but since we know that \"L=2W%2B4\", we can write:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"P=2%282W%2B4%29+%2B+2W\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Furthermore, since we are given that the perimeter is 98 feet we can write:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%282W%2B4%29+%2B+2W+=+98\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now all you need to do is solve the equation for W. Once you have a value for W, substitute it into \"L=2W%2B4\" then calculate L.\r
