Hi there!


-19=2w+9-6w -19 =-4w + 9 Flip the equation -4w + 9 = -19 Subtract 9 form both sides -4w + 9 - 9 = -19 - 9 -4w = -28 Divide both sides by -4 to find w -4w/-4 = -28/-4 w = 7

Good luck!

Combine like terms:
-19 = -4w + 9
Additive property of equality:
-28 = -4w
Division property of equality:
w = 7


Hope this helps!
