Question

−(14w+8)+8=3

Answer 1

Hello!

let's make the following solution:

$- (14w + 8) + 8 = 3$

we eliminate the parentheses and change the signs

$- 14w - 8 + 8 = 3$

we eliminate the opposite numbers

$- 14w - \diagup\!\!\!\!8 + \diagup\!\!\!\!8 = 3$

so:

$- 14w = 3\;\:(simplify\:by\:-1)$

$14w = -3$

$\boxed{\boxed{w = -\frac{3}{14}}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark$

ps: the answer is correct, the question was poorly worked out with the wrong feedback.
