Given the numerical equation:
-(14w + 8) + 8 =3
Solve for w.
Solution:
In order to solve for w, first need to distribute the negative sign that is located outside the parenthesis.
-(14w + 8) + 8 = 3
-14w -8 + 8 = 3
-14w = 3
Divide both sides by -14 in order to cancel out -14w.
-14w/-14 = 3/-14
w = -0.214
Final answer:
w = -0.214
