Hello there!


Subtract by the
number
3.2 to your
sides

Like →
-0.08w + 3.2 - 3.2 \\ \\ = 4 - 3.2

We get this→
-0.08w = -7.2

Since the
-0.08 goes into both of the number we would have to
divide by the decimal
-0.08 onto your
sides

Like →
(-0.08w)/(-0.08) = (-7.2)/(-0.08)

Now the we got those
few
steps out of the way we can solve our answer!


(-0.08w)/(-0.08) \\ (CancelOut) \\ \\ \\ \\ (-7.2)/(-0.08) \\ (Keep)


(-7.2)/(-0.08) = 90 \\ \\ \\ Answer: w = 90

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
