Determine the solution to the following problem: −3w−9=−6

1 answer

To solve the equation, we want to isolate the variable w.

Starting with the equation -3w - 9 = -6, we can begin by adding 9 to both sides of the equation:

-3w - 9 + 9 = -6 + 9

This simplifies to -3w = 3.

Next, we can divide both sides of the equation by -3 to solve for w:

-3w / -3 = 3 / -3

This simplifies to w = -1.

Therefore, the solution to the equation -3w - 9 = -6 is w = -1.
