Given:

6w - y = 2z

Determine w

Solution:

In order to find the w, we must solve for w in terms of y and z.

6w - y = 2z

Transpose -y on the other side of the equation. Note that when transposing a number, the sign changes.

6w =2z  + y

Divide both sides by 6 in order to get the value of w.

6w/6 =(2z  + y)/6

w = (2z +y) / 6

Final answer: The value of w is equal to (2z + y) /6
