Answer:
w = 10
Explanation:
Solve for w:
w/4 + 8.25 = 10.75
Put each term in w/4 + 8.25 over the common denominator 4: w/4 + 8.25 = w/4 + 33/4:
w/4 + 33/4 = 10.75
w/4 + 33/4 = (w + 33)/4:
(w + 33)/4 = 10.75
Multiply both sides of (w + 33)/4 = 10.75 by 4:
(4 (w + 33))/4 = 4×10.75
(4 (w + 33))/4 = 4/4×(w + 33) = w + 33:
w + 33 = 4×10.75
4×10.75 = 43:
w + 33 = 43
Subtract 33 from both sides:
w + (33 - 33) = 43 - 33
33 - 33 = 0:
w = 43 - 33
43 - 33 = 10:
Answer: w = 10
