Answer:

w = 3

Explanation:

to solve for w, do the inverse operation to get w by itself. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. So divide -9 by -9 and divide -27 by -9. When dealing with multiplication and division of negative numbers, a negative and a positive are negative. two negative numbers are positive. -9 and -27 make positive 3 so:

w=3

hope this helps
