Answer 1

Question :-

What is the value of z in the equation 2z + 8 = -6 ?

____________________

Solution :-

Given Information :-

• Equation ➢ 2z + 8 = -6

To Find :-

• The value of z in the given equation.

Calculation :-

⇒ 2z + 8 = -6

Transposing +8 to Right Hand Side of the equation, We get,

⇒ 2z = -6 -8

Calculating further, We get,

⇒ 2z = -14

Transposing 2 to Right Hand Side of the equation, We get,

⇒ z =
`\sf ( - 14)/(2)`

Calculating further, We get,

⇒ z = -7

∴ z = -7

____________________

Final Answer :-

• The value of z is -7

Answer 2

Z= -7
Explanation: subtract the 8 onto the opposite side of the equation (-14). Then divide by 2 to isolate z (-7). So the answer is -7.
