Hi there!
We have:
-3 - x = -2w + 4v
Solve for x
Start by adding 3 to both sides
-3 - x + 3 = -2w + 4v + 3
-x = -2w + 4v + 3
Remember that we cannot leave the x with a negative sign.
There are two ways to remove the negative sign.
1) We can divide both sides by -1
2) We can multiply both sides by -1
In this, I am going to multiply both sides by -1
-x * -1 = (-2w + 4v + 3)(-1)
x = 2w - 4v - 3
I hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Thanks!
