How do you rewrite this sentence in passe compose in french?

Lise et Marie, pourquoi est-ce que vous ne sortez pas encore.|||Lise et Marie, pourquoi n'锚tes vous pas encore sorties?

You know that for the Pass茅 Compos茅 you need the verb to have or the verb to be before the past participle. You use the verb to be with most of the verbs that express a move like aller (to go, je suis all茅), sortir (je suis sorti). Because you use the verb to be, you must agree the past partciple with the subject, here the subject (Lise et Marie) is feminine plural, so you add "es" at the end of "sorti".|||Lise et Marie, pourquoi est-ce que vous n'etes pas sorties encore? (there should be that little ^ on the first "E" in etes though)
you are using the VANDERTRAMP method on the word sortir and adding the etre conjugation for vous before the sortir. Sortir is modified according to whether it is masculine or feminine and if it is plural. On sortir we add an e and an s because vous (in this case) is feminine and plural.
hopefuly you have learned this in school and know what im talking about. hope that helped :)
