\huge\text{Hey there!}



\mathsfw + 8


\large\text{Convert to: }\boxed{\mathsf{w + 8 = 0}}\large\text{ (because we have to solve for the absolute value of}\\\large\text{the original equation.)}


\large\text{SUBTRACT 8 to BOTH SIDES:}


\mathsf{w + 8 = 0}


\mathsf{w + 8 - 8 = 0 - 8}


\large\text{Simplify it:}


\mathsf{w = 0 - 8}


\mathsf{w = -8}


\huge\text{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{w = -8}}}\huge\checkmark
