Simplify your answer as much as possible.

w-9=


Answer :

Answer:

[tex]-8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for [tex]w[/tex] given the equation, [tex]-3w +5 = 2[/tex]:

[tex]-3w +5 = 2 \\ -3w +5 -5 = 2 -5 \\ -3w = -3 \\ \frac{-3w}{-3} = \frac{-3}{-3} \\ w = 1[/tex]

Solving for [tex]w -9[/tex] when [tex]w = 1[/tex]

[tex]1 -9 \\ -8[/tex]
