Solution Steps

Step 1: Isolate the variable term

Start by isolating the term containing \( w \). Subtract 118 from both sides of the equation: \[ 256 - 118 = -w + 118 - 118 \] \[ 138 = -w \]

Step 2: Solve for \( w \)

To solve for \( w \), multiply both sides of the equation by \(-1\): \[ 138 \cdot (-1) = -w \cdot (-1) \] \[ -138 = w \]

Step 3: Write the final solution

The solution for \( w \) is: \[ w = -138 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{w = -138}\)
