Question

Solve the equation for l.
P = 2l + 2w

Answer 1

Start by subtracting 2w from both sides.

Then divide both sides by 2 to completely isolate l

Answer 2

The online hw wont accept the following answers

p/2 -w=l

l=(p-2w)/2

Answer 3

already tried that and it doesnt work

Answer 4

hmm why not try

l = p/2 - w

or

l = -w + p/2

Answer 5

ok i only have one guess left.. ugh hopefully its right

Answer 6

the answer is either

\[\Large l = \frac{P - 2w}{2}\]

or

\[\Large l = \frac{P}{2} - w\]

of course, you can rearrange the terms
