Answer:

w = 7.25

Explanation:

w + 1.5 = 8.75

To find what w is, you need to isolate. To isolate w from 1.5, you have to subtract 1.5 by 1.5.

w + 1.5-1.5 = 8.75

What you do to one side of the equal sign, you have to do to the other

w + 1.5-1.5 = 8.75 - 1.5

1.5-1.5 cancels out and 8.75 - 1.5 equals to 7.25

w = 7.25
