Answer:

W = 15. I hope this helped.

Explanation:

Steps:

1.Add 19w to both sides.

11=−17w−19+19w

2.Simplify -17w-19+19w to 2w-19

11=2w−19

3.Add 19 to both sides.

11+19=2w

4. Simplify 11+19 to 30.

30=2w

5.Divide both sides by 2.

30/2 = w

6.Simplify 30/2 to 15.

15=w

7.Switch sides.

w=15
