Solve for w.

−0.1w+23.2=−0.8

1 answer

To solve for w, we will isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

First, we will subtract 23.2 from both sides:

-0.1w + 23.2 - 23.2 = -0.8 - 23.2

This simplifies to:

-0.1w = -24

Next, we will divide both sides by -0.1 to isolate w:

(-0.1w) / -0.1 = -24 / -0.1

This simplifies to:

w = 240

Therefore, the solution for w is 240.
