Write the equation that represents this statement 23 more than z is 76.________________What is the value of z in the equation above?_______________

Answer 1

First statement

z + 23 = 76 (First answer)

Isolating z, we have,

z = 76 - 23 Transposing 23 to the other side of the equation

z= 53

The value of z in the equation is 53
