Question

What value of w makes the equation below true? 2w+10=16
3
10
12
17​

Answer 1

w = 3 (option 1)

Explanation:

2w + 10 = 16

2w + 10 - 10 = 16 - 10

2w = 6

w = 6/2

w = 3

Answer 2

Hey There!

Let's solve...

`2q + 10 = 16 \\ \\`

So subtract 10 from both sides

`2w + 10 - 10 = 16 - 10 \\ \\ = 2w = 6 \\ \\ \therefore \: w = (6)/(2) \\ \\ simplify \\ \\ \frac{ \cancel{6} \: ^(3) }{ \cancel{2}} \\ \\ w = 3`

So value of w is 3

Hence option a is correct

I hope it is helpful to you...
