Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     -2+8*w-(-6*(3*w+9))=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Step  2  :

Pulling out like terms :

 2.1     Pull out like factors :

   3w + 9  =   3 • (w + 3) 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  (8w - 2) -  (0 -  18 • (w + 3))  = 0 

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

 4.1     Pull out like factors :

   26w + 52  =   26 • (w + 2) 

Equation at the end of step  4  :

  26 • (w + 2)  = 0 

Step  5  :

Equations which are never true :

 5.1      Solve :    26   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 5.2      Solve  :    w+2 = 0 

 Subtract  2  from both sides of the equation : 
                      w = -2
