Listen i know its dumb but- solve for w 10 + w = -9

Darya [45]

Answer:

w = -19

Explanation:

To solve this equation, subtract ten from both sides. This will isolate the variable (w) and allow us to find its value.

$10 + w = -9\\(10 - 10) + w = (-9 - 10)\\w = (-9 - 10)\\w = -19$

If you would like to double check that the variable (w) does in fact equal negative nineteen, substitute the value of the variable in the equation and solve.

$10 + w = -9\\10 + -19 = -9\\-19 = -19 [true]$

Therefore, the value of w in the given equation is -19.
