For this case we have the following equation:
[tex]- (\frac {1} {4} w + 8) + 8 = 3[/tex]
We apply distributive property considering that:
[tex]- * + = -[/tex]
So:
[tex]- \frac {1} {4} w-8 + 8 = 3\\- \frac {1} {4} w = 3[/tex]
We multiply by -4 on both sides of the equation:
[tex]w = -4 * 3\\w = -12[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]w = -12[/tex]
Option D
