Equation: [tex]w+3=4w-6[/tex]
To solve for w, you need to get w on one side.
Add 6 to each side
[tex]w+3+6=4w-6+6[/tex]
Subtract w from each side
[tex]w-w+9=4w-w[/tex]
[tex]9=3w[/tex] is what the equation is now with w on one side.
The last step now to find the value of w is to divide 9 by 3w (always divide the number by the variables when doing these type of equations)
[tex]9[/tex] ÷ [tex]3=3[/tex]
Answer: w=3
