Let's go through the solving process step-by-step and fill in the missing terms and descriptions.

  1. Start with the original equation: \[ 20(-4w - 4) = 11w + 11 \]

  2. Apply the distributive property: \[ 20(-4w) + 20(-4) = 11w + 11 \] This simplifies to: \[ -80w - 80 = 11w + 11 \]

  3. Now we have: \[ -80w - 80 = 11w + 11 \] Next, we will add 80 to both sides: \[ -80w = 11w + 11 + 80 \] This simplifies to: \[ -80w = 11w + 91 \]

  4. Now, subtract \(11w\) from both sides: \[ -80w - 11w = 91 \] This simplifies to: \[ -91w = 91 \]

  5. Now we will divide both sides by \(-91\): \[ w = \frac{91}{-91} \]

  6. Finally, simplify the fraction: \[ w = -1 \]

Here is the complete process with all missing terms filled in:

  1. Start with the equation: \(20(-4w - 4) = 11w + 11\)
  2. Apply the distributive property: \(-80w - 80 = 11w + 11\)
  3. Add 80 to both sides: \(-80w = 11w + 91\)
  4. Subtract \(11w\) from both sides: \(-91w = 91\)
  5. Divide both sides by \(-91\): \(w = -1\)

Final answer: \[ w = -1 \]
