yw=8\left(x+1\right)
Variable w cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by w.
yw=8x+8
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by x+1.
\frac{yw}{y}=\frac{8x+8}{y}
Divide both sides by y.
w=\frac{8x+8}{y}
Dividing by y undoes the multiplication by y.
w=\frac{8\left(x+1\right)}{y}
Divide 8+8x by y.
w=\frac{8\left(x+1\right)}{y}\text{, }w\neq 0
Variable w cannot be equal to 0.
yw=8\left(x+1\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by w.
yw=8x+8
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by x+1.
8x+8=yw
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
8x=yw-8
Subtract 8 from both sides.
8x=wy-8
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{wy-8}{8}
Divide both sides by 8.
x=\frac{wy-8}{8}
Dividing by 8 undoes the multiplication by 8.
x=\frac{wy}{8}-1
Divide yw-8 by 8.
