Oh honey, solving for w in 2l + 2w = P is as easy as stealing candy from a baby. Just subtract 2l from both sides and then divide by 2. Voila, w = (P - 2l) / 2. Now go show off your math skills like the boss you are.
p=2l+2w
P = 100 l = 30 w = 20
what is w if 2w = 16
if the perimeter is 12 then the semi perimeter is 6 p=2L+2w 12=2L+2w by division 6=L+w
2L+2W=P (S2w) Subtract 2W from both sides 2L=P-2W (D2) Divide both sides by 2 L=(P-2W)/2
22

First, I am assuming you mean P = 2L + 2W, solve for W. If so, then see below! You solve equations the same way, whether they have multiple variables or not: Distribute, Combine Like Terms, Move the variable you are isolating to one side, Add or Subtract, then Multiply or Divide. Let's show how this equation is very much like an equation having only one variable: 28 = 20 + 2W -20 -20 8 = 2W ÷2 ÷2 4 = W So, if you get stuck, just "fake" the variables you aren't solving for into being random numbers. Solve your "fake" equation like you would any equation. Then use the same steps in your original "variable" equation. P = 2L + 2W -2L -2L P-2L= 2W ÷2 ÷2 (P-2L)/2 = W
For a rectangle, P = 2L + 2W (L is length, W is width)
a = L x W: area equals length times the width. p = 2L + 2W: perimeter equals 2 times the length plus 2 times the width so L = (p - 2W)/2
There is no indication as to what B represents and consequently no possibility of answering the question.
p=2l+2w
p=2l+2w
P=2w+2l
2l+2w
you have two equations with two unknowns, length and width let W = width and L = length 2W - 4 = L (1) The perimeter is 2L + 2W 2L + 2W = 34 (2) rearrange (1) and (2) 2W - L = 4 2W +2L = 34 multiply (1) both sides by 2 4W - 2L = 8 2W + 2L =34 add equations 6W = 42 W = 7 solve L from (2) by substituting W = 7 L = 10
