Question

75 - 4w = 63 solve for w

Answer 1

w3

Explanation:

move the constant to the right hand side and change it's sign

calculate the difference

divide both sides of the equation by 4

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

w = 3

Explanation:

Isolate the w term by subtracting the constant on that side.

75 -75 -4w = 63 -75

-4w = -12

Get w by itself by dividing by its coefficient.

-4w/-4 = -12/-4

w = 3
