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:


P=2(l+w).

Firstly, we will multiply 2 within the parenthesis to get
P=2l+2w.

Next, we will subtract the term '2l' from both sides of the equation to get
P-2l=2w.

Then, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate w to get
(P-2l)/(2) =w.
