To solve the equation $32xy = W$ for $x$, isolate $x$ by performing inverse operations.

Step 1: Identify terms multiplying $x$

In the term $32xy$, the variable $x$ is being multiplied by $32$ and $y$, which together form $32y$.

Step 2: Divide both sides by $32y$

To undo the multiplication, divide both sides of the equation by $32y$:
$\frac{32xy}{32y} = \frac{W}{32y}$

Step 3: Simplify

Canceling $32y$ on the left side gives:
$x = \frac{W}{32y}$

Going beyond what your current note covers on solving equations, here is how to graph the inequality $x < 4$ on the number line provided:

1. Select the open circle tool: Because the inequality is strictly less than ($<$) and does not include equal to ($\le$), place an open circle at $4$.

2. Draw an arrow to the left: Use the line tool to draw a line/arrow extending from $4$ to the left (towards negative numbers), showing all values less than $4$.
