Question

For each value of w, determine whether it is solution

Answer 1

Given:

$\frac{w}{6}-8=-11$

Add 8 to both-side of the equation.

$\begin{gathered} \frac{w}{6}=-11+8 \\ \\ \frac{w}{6}=-3 \end{gathered}$

Multiply both-side of the equation by 6.

$w=-18$

The value of w = -18

To determine whether it is a solution, check by substituting and evaluating.

$-\frac{18}{6}-8=-3-8=-11$

Therefore, w= -18 is a solution.
