Answer:
We are given the following equation in which we are supposed to isolate the variable w by making it the subject of the equation and describe the process in two or more sentences:
[tex]P=2(l+w)[/tex].
Firstly, we will multiply 2 within the parenthesis to get [tex]P=2l+2w[/tex].
Next, we will subtract the term '2l' from both sides of the equation to get [tex]P-2l=2w[/tex].
Then, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate w to get [tex]\frac{P-2l}{2} =w[/tex].
