Answer:

w=11

Explanation:

3/7w -11 = -4/7

add the opposite of -4/7w to the opposite side, which is 4/7w

so it would be

3/7w +4/7w -11=0

Then add the opposite of -11 which is 11 to the other side

3/7w + 4/7w=11

since 3/7w and 4/7w are like terms, you can add them together to make

1w or w

which makes the equation

1w=11

and then you divide by 1, which should leave it the same

so it would be w=11
