Q. 3737\newline6(w4)+8w=2(w+9)6w+24+8w=2w+18 \begin{array}{l} -6(w-4)+8 w=2(w+9) \\ -6 w+24+8 w=2 w+18 \end{array}
  1. Simplify Equation: First, let's simplify the given equation by distributing the terms inside the brackets and combining like terms.\newline6(w4)+8w=2(w+9)-6(w-4) + 8w = 2(w+9)\newlineDistribute 6-6 into (w4)(w-4) and 22 into (w+9)(w+9):\newline6w+24+8w=2w+18-6w + 24 + 8w = 2w + 18
  2. Combine Like Terms: Now, let's combine the like terms on both sides of the equation.\newline(6w+8w)+24=2w+18(-6w + 8w) + 24 = 2w + 18\newline2w+24=2w+182w + 24 = 2w + 18
  3. Isolate Constant Terms: Next, we subtract 2w2w from both sides of the equation to isolate the constant terms.\newline2w+242w=2w+182w2w + 24 - 2w = 2w + 18 - 2w\newline24=1824 = 18
  4. Identify No Solution: We see that the equation simplifies to 24=1824 = 18, which is not true. This means that there is no solution to the equation, as the variables have canceled out and we are left with a false statement.
