Q:

-79 = 7w + 3(4w – 1)​

Accepted Solution

A:
Hello! The answer to your question would be as followed:Rearrange:Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :                     -79-(7*w+3*(4*w-1)=0  -79 -  (7w +  3 • (4w - 1))  = 0 Pulling out like terms :   Pull out like factors :   -19w - 76  =   -19 • (w + 4)  -19 • (w + 4)  = 0 Equations which are never true :       Solve :    -19   =  0This equation has no solution.A a non-zero constant never equals zero.Solving a Single Variable Equation :      Solve  :    w+4 = 0 Subtract  4  from both sides of the equation :                      w = -4                   w = -4
