Answer: w=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 Solve by distributing 0.15w+0.15\cdot2=0.3+0.2w

Simplify the arithmetic 0.15w+0.3=0.3+0.2w

Step 2 Subtract 0.2w from both sides 0.15w+0.3-0.2w=0.3+0.2~w-0.2w

Group like terms: 0.15w-0.2w+0.3=0.3+0.2w-0.2w Simplify the arithmetic -0.05w+0.3=0.3+0.2w-0.2w Group like terms -0.05w+0.3=0.2w-0.2w+0.3 Simplify the arithmetic -0.05w+0.3=0.3

Step 3 Subtract 0.3 from both sides -0.05w+0.3-0.3=0.3-0.3 Simplify the arithmetic -0.05w=0.3-0.3 Simplify the arithmetic -0.05w=0 Isolate the X

then equals w=0
