Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

-w - 2 = 42

Step 2: Solve for w

  1. Add 2 to both sides:                    -w = 44
  2. Divide -1 on both sides:               w = -44

Step 3: Check

Plug in w into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

  1. Substitute in w:                    -(-44) - 2 = 42
  2. Multiply:                                44 - 2 = 42
  3. Subtract:                               42 = 42

Here we see that 42 does indeed equal 42.

∴ w = -44 is the solution to the equation.
