What do you mean? Which variable is the function name? l or w? If these are the variables, you have already shown the equation for perimeter in standard form. All you can do is say, .

Avoid confusion in reading. Use a different variable name for LENGTH, maybe choosing L, or x, or y. The lower case L has the same appearance as the digit for "one".
