Answer:
z = -60 or z= -1/60
Step-by-step explanation:
One way:
-5/6z-3=47
Add 3 to both sides
-5/6z=50
Multiply both sides by 6z
-5=6z(50)
-5 = 300z
Divide both sides by 300
-1/60 = z
Another solution:
[tex]\frac{-5}{6} z-3=47[/tex]
Add three to both sides.
[tex]\frac{-5}{6} z = 50[/tex]
Bring both -5/6 and z together
[tex]\frac{-5z}{6}[/tex] = 50
Multiply both sides by 6
-5z = 300
Divide both sides by -5
z = -60
