$x = - 25$ $x=-25$

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation by Distrubuting method.

$6 (1) + 6 (3 x) = - 8 (- 2 x) + (- 8) (5) - 4$ $6(1)+6(3x)=-8(-2x)+(-8)(5)-4$

Step 2: Combine like terms and simplify.

$6 + 18 x = 16 x - 40 - 4$ $6+18x=16x-40-4$

$6 + 18 x = 16 x - 44$ $6+18x=16x-44$

Step 3:

$18 x - 16 x = - 44 - 6$ $18x-16x=-44-6$

$2 x = 25$ $2x=25$

Hence, we get the answer:

$w = 25$ $w=25$
