Question

What is the value of w? w + 3 4 = w - 2 2 A) 7 B) 9 C) 11 D) 13

Answer 1

w+34 = w-22
w-w = -22-34
0 = -56 (indetermines)
it does note value to w

Answer 2

we have

$\frac{w+3}{4} =\frac{w-2}{2}$

Solve for w

$2(w+3)=4(w-2)\\2w+6=4w-8 \\ 4w-2w=6+8\\2w=14 \\w=14/2 \\w=7$

therefore

the answer is the option A

$w=7$
