Solve. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
First, distribute 5 to all terms within the parenthesis
5(w - 1) = (5)(w) + (5)(-1) = 5w - 5
Next, simplify. Combine like terms
5w - 5 - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 7 = 5w + 7
Next, isolate the variable. Add 7 to both sides, and subtract 5w from both sides
5w (-5w) - 7 (+7) = 5w (-5w) + 7 (+7)
5w - 5w = 7 + 7
0 = 14 (Untrue).
