Answer:

Explanation:

P=2a+b

Solve for a.

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate a.

P=2a+b

P/2=a+b/2

When you rewrite the equation, it becomes:

a=P/2-b/2 (The sign changes from a positive to a negative because you need to move P/2 to the other side to get a to one side)

Therefore, your final answer is: a=P/2-b/2

Hope this helped!
