Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is w = 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Equation                           7(w + 2) + 0.5w = 5

Expand                               7w + 14 + 0.5w = 5

Simplify like terms             (7w + 0.5w) + 14 = 5

                                            7.5w + 14 = 5

Subtract 14 in both sides

                                            7.5w + 14 - 14 = 4 - 15

Simplify

                                            7.5w = - 9

Divide both side by 7.5      7.5/7.5w = 9/7.5

Simplify

                                             w = 1.2
