Question

what is the value of z in the equation 2z 8 = −6? −1 −7 1 7

Answer 1

if you mean 2z+8=-6
than 2z=-14 and z=-7

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of z is $-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$2z+8=-6$

Solve for z

Subtract $8$ both sides

$2z+8-8=-6-8$

$2z=-14$

Divide by $2$ both sides

$2z/2=-14/2$

$z=-7$
