Answer:

[tex]P=2(S-lw)/h[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

The formula for the surface area of the enclosed space is

[tex]S=lw+0.5Ph[/tex]

Solve for P

That means ------> isolate the variable P

Subtract lw both sides

[tex]S-lw=lw+0.5Ph-lw[/tex]

[tex]S-lw=0.5Ph[/tex]

Multiply by 2 both sides

[tex]2(S-lw)=(2)0.5Ph[/tex]

[tex]2(S-lw)=Ph[/tex]

Divide by h both sides

[tex]2(S-lw)/h=Ph/h[/tex]

[tex]2(S-lw)/h=P[/tex]

Rewrite

[tex]P=2(S-lw)/h[/tex]
