Answer:
w=-7/2z
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve for w you firstly have to group the like terms
5w-3w=2z-9z
2w=-7z
then you have to divide both sides by 2 inorder to remain with w on one side.
2w/2=-7/2
w=-7/2
I hope this helps
First you should set up fractions equal to each other to see the size ratio
8/34 = x/1.2
As to make comparable fractions. Then you would cross multiply in order to get

Divide both sides by 34 and you should get an answer of 0.28m for the model beam.
