This is a rational equation i don't understand lol

-2 1/4 = 2w

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation . To solve this equation, we can divide both sides by 2 to get that .

w = -

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2 = 2w ( change the mixed number to an improper fraction )

- = 2w ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

- 9 = 8w ( divide both sides by 8 )

- = w

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
