Question

4.5w=5.1w-30, how do I solve it

Answer 1

first you have to get the same variables on one side so you’d subtract 5.1w from both sides, making the equation -0.6w = -30

then you want to single out the variable, diving -0.6 on both sides making the new equation and the answer w = 50

hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hey there!

Let's subtract by
`5.1w` on EACH of your sides that we're working with

LIke:
`4,5w - 5.1w \\ = 5.1w - 30 - 5.1w`

We get:
`-0.6w = -30`

Now, let's divide by
`-0.6` on EACH of your sides

LIke:
`(-0.6w)/(-0.6) \\ \\ = (-30)/(-0.6)`


`Answer: w = 50`

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
