Question

Solve for w in g=1/6(w+40)

Answer 1

w=6g-40

Explanation:

We have here a two variables equation, so it does not have a singular solution; it is just possible to isolate one of the variables. We start from:

`g=(1)/(6)*(w+40)`

So, multiply each part of the equation by 6:

`6g=w+40`

Finally, subtract 40 from each part of the equation.

`w=6g-40`

As you see, variables isolation requires to sum, subtract, multiply or divide depending on what you need.
