$h = (\frac{1}{5}) w + (\frac{8}{5})$

Step 1

Remove parentheses.

$h = (\frac{1}{5}) w + \frac{8}{5}$

Step 2

Multiply $\frac{1}{5}$ by $w$ .

$h = \frac{1}{5} w + \frac{8}{5}$

Step 3

Remove parentheses.

$h = (\frac{1}{5}) w + \frac{8}{5}$

Step 4

Combine $\frac{1}{5}$ and $w$ .

$h = \frac{w}{5} + \frac{8}{5}$

Step 5

To rewrite as a function of $w$ , write the equation so that $h$ is by itself on one side of the equal sign and an expression involving only $w$ is on the other side.

$f (w) = \frac{w}{5} + \frac{8}{5}$
