Answer:

w = 5

Explanation:

8 +
(35)/(w) = 15

subtract 8 from both sides

8 +
(35)/(w) - 8 = 15 - 8

simplify


(35)/(w) = 7

35/7 = w

w = 5

Answer:


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \bold{w = 5}}}}

Option D is the correct option

Explanation:


\sf{8 + (35)/(w) = 15}


\sf{ (8 * w + 35)/(w) = 15} { w ÷ 1 = w , So, I wrote 8 × w }


\sf{ (8w + 35)/(w) = 15}

Apply cross product property


\sf{8w + 35 = 15w}

Move 15w to left hand side and change it's sign

Similarly, Move 35 to right hand side and change it's sign


\sf{8w - 15w = - 35}

Collect like terms


\sf{ - 7 w = - 35 }

Divide both sides of the equation by -7


\sf{ ( - 7w)/( - 7) = ( - 35)/( - 7) }

Calculate


\sf{w = 5}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
