Solve for w: w – 4 = –3 (Show all of your steps)

1 answer

To solve for w, we need to isolate the variable w on one side of the equation. Here are the steps to do so:

1. Add 4 to both sides of the equation to undo the subtraction of 4 on the left side:

w - 4 + 4 = -3 + 4
Simplifying the left side gives:
w = 1

So the solution to the equation is w = 1.
