You want to solve for 'z'.
First combine like terms on either side of the equal sign.

Left side:  9z +2  ----> No like terms, leave alone

Right side: 6z - 10 -z - 4  ----> circle like terms and add
                    6z -z = 5z
                   -10 -4 = -14
Now the equation is:
9z + 2 = 5z - 14

Get all the 'z' terms on the left side and all the numbers on right side.
You can move a term to the other side if you flip the sign.

Move 5z to left side, flip the sign to -5z
Move '2' to right side, flip the sign to -2

9z - 5z = -2 -14

Add like terms
4z = -16

Divide by 4 on both sides
z = -4

If a/\2+1/a/\2=11, then a+1/a=?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

\pm \sqrt{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

\bigg(a +  \frac{1}{a}  \bigg)^{2} =  {a}^{2}   +  \frac{1}{ {a}^{2} }  + 2 \times a \times  \frac{1}{a}  \\  \\ \bigg(a +  \frac{1}{a}  \bigg)^{2} = 11 + 2 \\  \\   \bigg(a +  \frac{1}{a}  \bigg)^{2} = 13 \\  \\  \bigg(a +  \frac{1}{a}  \bigg) =  \pm \sqrt{13}

A utility pole is 35 ft tall. The pole creates a 50 ft. shadow. What is the angle of elevation of the sun? Round your answer to
Ilya [14]
We can get the angle with 
tan a= opposite side / adjacent side = 35ft/ 50ft=0.7, so a = arctan(0.7)=35°

Which facts could be applied to simplify this expression? Select three options.
kumpel [21]

Answer:

A, B, and D

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract like terms, you're supposed to subtract the coefficients, so <u><em>Option 1 is correct</em></u>. The statement like terms are terms that contain the same variable, raised to the same power, is true, so <u><em>Option 2 is correct</em></u>. The simplified expression is -4 - 3y + 3z, so Option 3 is wrong and <u><em>Option 4 is correct</em></u>. Option 5, -(-x) = -x is wrong, so Option 5 is not correct. Therefore, the answers are Options 1, 2, and 4 (or A, B, and D).

Hope this helps! I got it right on Edgen.
