Answer 1

7 - 9w = - 29

Subtract 7 from both sides

- 9w = - 36

Divide by - 9 on both sides

w = 4

Answer 2

The first step for solving this expression is to move the constant to the right side of the equation and then change its sign.
-9w = -29 - 7
Calculate the difference on the right side of the equation by extracting the negative sign.
-(29 + 7)
Now add the numbers together,, add the negative sign and put it back into the original equation.
-9w = -36
Divide both sides of the equation by -9.
-9w ÷ (-9) = -36 ÷ (-9)
Remember that any expression divided by itself equals 1,, so the expression becomes the following:
w = -36 ÷ (-9)
Since dividing two negatives equals a positive,, the expression changes to:
w = 36 ÷ 9
Lastly,, divide the numbers to get your final answer.
w = 4
