Add 4ws to both sides.


Factor out the GCF 'v' on the right side


Divide both sides by to isolate 'v'.


Rearrange the equation.


So the solution is


Note: you made a mistake in thinking that you can combine 3s and 5w to get 8sw....the terms 3s and 5w are NOT like terms, so they CANNOT be combined.

T=3vs-4ws+5vw solve for V please I got v= t+4ws/8sw
Step 1: Given: T=3vs-4ws+5vw
Step 2: Group terms containing v on right side of equation and other terms not containing v on left side. Here's how it works:
Step 2a. Add 4ws to both sides of equation: T+4ws=3vs-4ws+4ws+5vw. Note on right side of equation: -4ws+4ws=0 to simplify on next step
Step 2b. Simplify right side: T+4ws=3vs+5vw Again note we used: -4ws+4ws=0
Step 3. Now Solve for v by factoring and divide. Here's how it works:
Step 3a. Factor out v on right side: T+4ws=v(3s+5w)
Step 3b. You want to isolate v by itself. Now divide (3s+5w)in both sides of equations: (T+4ws)/(3s+5w)=v(3s+5w)/(3s+5w). Note: On right side (3s+4w)/(3s+5w)=1. So we can simplify in final step.
Step 3c. (T+4ws)/(3s+5w)=v
Step 4. We can rewrite final answer as v=(T+4ws)/(3s+5w)
