1. w/2+7=w/3+9
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 7 from both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "w/2 = w/3 +2
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 6 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "3w = 2w +54
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 2w from both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "w=54
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "2. 8y-4+3(y+7)=6y-3(y-3)
\n" ); document.write( "Apply the distributive law to get:
\n" ); document.write( "8y-4+3y+21 = 6y-3y+9
\n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms to get:
\n" ); document.write( "11y+17 = 3y+9
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 17 from both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "11y=3y-8
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 3y from both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "8y=-8
\n" ); document.write( "divide by 8 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "y=-1
\n" ); document.write( "Cheers,
