2.14x - 12.18 = -5.76

Since the inverse operation of subtraction is addition, add 12.18 to both sides.

2.14x=6.42

Now, since the inverse operation of multiplication is division, divide both sides by 2.14

x=3

The answer is 5.76 you’ll thank me later

I'm going to assume that you've done logarithms ("logs") in class
before you ran into this one on homework.

3(w to the -2/3 power) + 6= 198

Subtract 6 from each side:

3(w to the -2/3 power) = 192

Take the log of each side:

log(3) -(2/3) log(w) = log(192)

Subtract log(3) from each side:

-(2/3) log(w) = log(192) - log(3) . . . notice that this side is log(192/3) = log(64)

-(2/3) log(w) = log(64)

Divide each side by -(2/3) :

log(w) = -(3/2) log(64)

Raise 10 to the power of each side:

w = (64) to the -3/2 power .

==> (A number) to the -3/2 power means 1/(the number to the +3/2 power).

==> The 3/2 power means either find the number's square root and then cube it,
or else find the number's cube and then square root it.

w = 1 / (64 to the 3/2 power) = 1 / 512 .

That's choice ' B '.
