How to solve for "W" in this equation: A=2(L+W)
I know I'm supposed to do A=2L+2W, but i don't know how to go from there!


Sagot :

[tex]A=2(L+W)\\\\A=2 L+2W\\ \\2W=A-2L\ \ /:2 \\\\W=\frac{A}{2} -\frac{2L}{2}\\\\W=\frac{1}{2}A -L[/tex]


For this case we have the following expression:

[tex] A = 2 (L + W)
[/tex]

From here, we want to clear the value of W.

For this, we follow the following steps:

1) Pass the number 2 dividing:

[tex] (L + W) = \frac{A}{2}
[/tex]

2) Pass the variable L subtracting:

[tex] W = \frac{A}{2} - L
[/tex]

Thus, we observe that we have the equation solved for the variable W.

Answer:

Solving the equation for W we have:

[tex] W = \frac{A}{2} - L [/tex]
