Answer: [tex]w=\frac{12}{13}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for w, we want to isolate the variable.
[tex]\frac{1}{3}w +\frac{5}{6}w-2=-w[/tex] [add both sides by 2 and w]
[tex]\frac{1}{3}w +\frac{5}{6}w+w=2[/tex] [convert to same denominator]
[tex]\frac{2}{6}w +\frac{5}{6}w+\frac{6}{6} w=2[/tex] [add]
[tex]\frac{13}{6} w=2[/tex] [multiply both sides by 6/13]
[tex]w=\frac{12}{13}[/tex]
Now we know that [tex]w=\frac{12}{13}[/tex].
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3w + 5/6w - 2 = -w Collect like terms on the left.
Before I do, I'm going to assume the question is (1/3)w + (5/6)w - 2 = - w
(1/3)w + (5/6)w - 2 = - w
1/3 + 5/6 = 2/6 + 5/6 = 7/6
(7/6)w - 2 = -w Add w to both sides
(7/6)w + w - 2 = 0 Combine the left
(7/6)w + 6/6 w - 2 = 0
(13 / 6) w - 2 = 0 Add 2 to both sides
(13/ 6) w = 2 Divide by 13/6
w = (2/1 ) ÷ (13/6) Invert the denominator and multiply
w = 2/1 * 6/13
w = 12/13
