3/4w+8=w-7, add 7 to both sides 3/4w+15=w,subtract 3/4w from each side and you get 15=1/4w 3.75=w

Step 1. Simplify [tex] \frac{3}{4}w[/tex] to [tex] \frac{3w}{4} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{3w}{4} +8=w-7[/tex]

Step 2. Multiply both sides by 4

[tex]3w+32=4w-28[/tex]

Step 3. Subtract [tex]3w[/tex] from both sides

[tex]32=4w-28-3w[/tex]

Step 4.  Simplify [tex]4w-28-3w[/tex] to [tex]w-28[/tex]

[tex]32=w-28[/tex]

Step 5. Simplify 32 + 28 to 60

[tex]60=w[/tex]

Step 6. Switch sides

[tex]w=60 [/tex]
