w=

Answer 1

Let's solve the equation step by step, beginning with the original equation:

\[
w - 9 - 4 = -3
\]

First, simplify the left side:

\[
w - 13 = -3
\]

Next, add 13 to both sides to isolate \(w\):

\[
w - 13 + 13 = -3 + 13
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
w = 10
\]

So the solution is:

\[
w = 10
\]
