Solve for w. 14 + 14w = 13w

Question

Please help with this problem i have for school

Answer 1

Solve for W , where 14+14W = 13 W

we have to find the out the value of W

I would suggest take all W s on left hand side of that equation, and the no s on right side

so we can write the equation like this

14W- 13 W = -14 ( why negative sign? because variables and nos they changed their side , so sign will be changed)

subtracting , 14W minus 13 W we get only W (as 14 - 13 = 1)

therefore, W = -14 Ans

Answer 2

Subtract 14w from both sides. You get

14 = -1x divide by -1

-14 = w or w = -14
