Answer:

No solution

Explanation:


2\left(w+1\right)+4w=3\left(2w-1\right)+8


2\left(w+1\right)+4w

Expand:-


2w+2+4w


=6w+2


3\left(2w-1\right)+8

Expand:-


6w-3+8


6w+5


6w+2=6w+5

Subtract 2 from both sides:-


6w+2-2=6w+5-2


6w=6w+3

Subtract 6w from both sides:-


6w-6w=6w+3-6w


0=3

Sides are not equal, so there is no solution.
