Question

How do I get the answer for w + 4(6 + 2w) = 87

Answer 1

Answer:

w = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

w + 4(6 + 2w) = 87

- distribute the 4

w + 24 + 8w = 87

- combine like terms

9w + 24 = 87

- subtract 24 from both sides

9w = 63

- divide 9 from both sides

w = 7

Answer 2

W = 7
first you distribute 4 to 6 and 2W
then you combine like terms by adding W and 8W
then you have to subtract 24 on both sides which leaves you with 9W = 63
then you divide by nine on both sides and get w = 7
