Answer:

w =
-(7)/(6)u

Explanation:

If u will be the independent variable, then w will have to be made the subject of the equation so that w will depend on the changes in u

4u + 8w = −3u + 2w

First collect all like terms

8w − 2w = −3u − 4u

6w = −7u

divide both sides by 6

∴ w =
-(7)/(6)u

In the equation w =
-(7)/(6)u , U is independent variable.
