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 :

                     22-(18-6*(-1-5*w))=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Step  2  :

Pulling out like terms :

 2.1     Pull out like factors :

   -1 - 5w  =   -1 • (5w + 1) 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  22 -  (18 -  -6 • (5w + 1))  = 0 

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

 4.1     Pull out like factors :

   -30w - 2  =   -2 • (15w + 1) 

Equation at the end of step  4  :

  -2 • (15w + 1)  = 0 

Step  5  :

Equations which are never true :

 5.1      Solve :    -2   =  0

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

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 5.2      Solve  :    15w+1 = 0 

 Subtract  1  from both sides of the equation : 
                      15w = -1
Divide both sides of the equation by 15:
                     w = -1/15 = -0.067
