Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
-3a + 8 = 2z + -12
Reorder the terms:
8 + -3a = 2z + -12
Reorder the terms:
8 + -3a = -12 + 2z
Solving
8 + -3a = -12 + 2z
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + -3a = -12 + -8 + 2z
Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + -3a = -12 + -8 + 2z
-3a = -12 + -8 + 2z
Combine like terms: -12 + -8 = -20
-3a = -20 + 2z
Divide each side by '-3'.
a = 6.666666667 + -0.6666666667z
Simplifying
a = 6.666666667 + -0.6666666667z
Answer:
x=-4 x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x^2 + 2x - 8
Set equal to zero
0 = x^2 + 2x - 8
Factor
What two numbers multiply to -8 and add to 2
4 * -2 = -8
4+-2 = 2
0=(x+4) ( x-2)
Using the zero product property
x+4 =0 x-2 =0
x=-4 x=2
