Question

6) Solve the equation: 5 = z/ 7a) z = 12 b) z= 35 c) z = 2 d) z=7

Answer 1

ANSWER

z = 35

EXPLANATION

We want to find z in the equation:

$5=\frac{z}{7}$

To do this, multiply both sides of the equation by 7:

$\begin{gathered} 5\cdot7=\frac{z}{7}\cdot7 \\ \Rightarrow35=z \\ z=35 \end{gathered}$

That is the value of z.
