Solve for w. -2w + 1 > -7 ______

Isolate variable term: Isolate the variable term on one side of the inequality by subtracting 1 from both sides. -2w + 1 - 1 > -7 - 1 -2w > -8Divide by -2: Divide both sides of the inequality by -2 to solve for w. Remember that dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign. -2w / -2 < -8 / -2 w < 4

Q. Solve for

w

\newline

-2w + 1 > -7

Isolate variable term: Isolate the variable term on one side of the inequality by subtracting $1$ from both sides. $\newline$ -2w + 1 - 1 > -7 - 1 $\newline$ -2w > -8
Divide by $-2$ : Divide both sides of the inequality by $-2$ to solve for $w$ . Remember that dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign. $\newline$ \frac{-2w}{-2} < \frac{-8}{-2} $\newline$ w < 4
