Answer:


l= (A)/(2h) -w

Explanation:

The question is not correct (particularly the expression for the area)

A=2lh+2wh

Now we are expected to solve for l, that is we are going to make l subject of the formula, we have

let us take the second term on the RHS to the LHS


A-2wh= 2lh

we can now divide both sides by 2h we have


(A-2wh)/(2h) = l\\\\l=(A)/(2h) -(2wh)/(2h) \\\\l= (A)/(2h) -w

hence the expression for the length is
l= (A)/(2h) -w
