Question

can you please help with these two questions 1). s/6-5= -8. 2). w/8 - 15 =22

Answer 1

$\begin{gathered} \frac{s}{6}-5=-8 \\ \frac{s-30}{6}=-8 \\ s-30=-48 \\ s=-48+30 \\ s=-18 \end{gathered}$$\begin{gathered} \frac{w}{8}-15=22 \\ \frac{w-120}{8}=22 \\ w-120=176 \\ w=176+120 \\ w=296 \end{gathered}$
