Answer:

-5 = w

Explanation:

3(2-5) – (4w=11)

Distributive property

6 - 15 - 4w = 11

Combine like terms

-9 - 4w = 11

Add 9 on both sides

-9 + 9 - 4w = 11 + 9

-4w = 20

Divide by -4 on both sides to isolate the variable

-4w/-4 = 20/-4

w = -5

Hope this helped!

Have a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious day!
