Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

-6(w + 2) = w - 9 + 3(3w + 1)

Step 2: Solve for w

1. Distribute:                         -6w - 12 = w - 9 + 9w + 3
2. Combine like terms:         -6w - 12 = 10w - 6
3. Add 6w to both sides:     -12 = 16w - 6
4. Isolate w term:                  -6 = 16w
5. Isolate w:                           -3/8 = w
6. Rewrite:                             w = -3/8

Answer 2

The answer is w = - 2/5
