Oh how I miss the days when math was as simple as 2+2=4.
Educated guess here: By putting parentheses.
W=15 no
W= 21 no
W= 1 Yes
If im right the question is just asking which variable is less than 15.
so the only variable that is less than 15 is 1.
All you have to do is follow PEMDAS (if you don't know what that is, search it up).
-2-5(4n-6)=-132
Distribute the 5 to everything in the parentheses.
-2-20n+30= -132
Combine like terms.
-20n+28 = -132
Subtract 28 from both sides.
-20n = -160
Divide by -20 on both sides.
n = 8
