Answer:

[tex]w=7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Angle Sum Theorem which states that all the interior angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees you can use that to solve for w with the following:

[tex]62 +9w-1+8w=180[/tex]  First combine like terms

[tex](62-1)+(9w+8w)=180[/tex]

[tex]61+17w=180[/tex] Then subtract 61 from both sides.

[tex]17w=180-61[/tex]

[tex]17w=119[/tex] Now divide by 17

[tex]w=119/17[/tex]

[tex]w=7[/tex]
