Question

How do you solve 2(w+13)=3(5−w)?

Answer 1

Answer:

w=- 11/5

Step-by-step explanation:

expand:2(w+13)=2w+26

expand3(5-w)=15-3w

2w+26=15-3w

subtract 26 from both sides: 2w+26-26=15-3w-26

simplify:2w=-3w-11

add 3w to both sides: 2w+3w=-3w-11+3w

simplify & divide both sides by 5 5w=-11

5w/5=-11/5

simplify which gets your answer
