Solve for w. 5 + 2w = 17

w=6

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 2w = 17

Subtract 5 from each side

5-5 + 2w = 17-5

2w = 12

Divide each side by 2

2w/2  = 12/2

w = 6

Solution:

Note that:

To solve this problem, isolate the variable by subtracting 5 to both sides of the equation.

Then, divide 2 both sides to further isolate the variable.

The solution to the equation is 6.

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
