What is the value of w in the equation 3/4w+8=w-7
3/4w+8=w-7, add 7 to both sides 3/4w+15=w,subtract 3/4w from each side and you get 15=1/4w 3.75=w
Step 1. Simplify \(\frac{3}{4}w\) to \(\frac{3w}{4}\)\(\frac{3w}{4} +8=w-7\)Step 2. Multiply both sides by 4\(3w+32=4w-28\)Step 3. Subtract \(3w\) from both sides\(32=4w-28-3w\)Step 4. Simplify \(4w-28-3w\) to \(w-28\)\(32=w-28\)Step 5. Simplify 32 + 28 to 60\(60=w\)Step 6. Switch sides\(w=60\)
