Answer:

w = 25

Explanation:

3(w - 5) = (2w + 10)

3w - 15 = 2w + 10

3w - 2 w = 10 + 15

w = 25

Answer:


w=25

Explanation:

So we have the equation (I'm assuming the brackets are synonymous with parentheses):


3(w-5)=(2w+10)

Distribute the left:


3w-15=2w+10

Add 15 to both sides:


3w=2w+25

Subtract 2w from both sides:


w=25

And we're done!

Edit: Typo
