Question 214087
{{{y = 5x + 8xw}}}  Solve for x


Step 1.  Factor out x on right side of equation.


{{{y = x(5 + 8w)}}}


Step 2.  Divide 5+8w to both sides of equation


{{{y/(5+8w) = x(5 + 8w)/(5+8w)}}}


{{{y/(5+8w)=x}}}


{{{x=y/(5+8w)}}}


Step 3.  ANSWER is {{{x=y/(5+8w)}}}


I hope the above steps were helpful.
