Answer:

w = (cv +dy) / (cb - ad)

Explanation:

Multiply through by c

aw + y = c(bw + v) / d Multiply by d

d(aw + y) = c(bw + v) Remove the brackets

daw + dy = cbw + cv Subtract dy from both sides.

daw +dy - dy = cbw + cv -dy

daw = cbw + cv - dy Subtract cbw from both sides

daw - cbw = cbw - cbw + cv - dy

daw - cbw = cv - dy Isolate W on the left.

w(da - cb) = cv - dy Divide by cb - ad on both sides.

w = (cv - dy) / (ad - bc) Answer
