Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-21 = z - (-6 - 2z)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><u><em>z</em></u>
- Distribute negative: -21 = z + 6 + 2z
- Combine like terms: -21 = 3z + 6
- Isolate <em>z</em> term: -27 = 3z
- Isolate <em>z</em>: -9 = z
- Rewrite: z = -9
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A locus can be defined as a curve or figure formed by all the points satisfying a particular equation of the relation between coordinates.
The condition stated in the question is such that a generic (x,y) point of the curve is equidistant from the points A(2,3) and B(6,1).
The distance d1 from (x,y) to (2,3) is:

The distance d2 from (x,y) to (6,1) is:

Since d1=d2:

Squaring both sides:

Operating:

Simplifying all the squares:

Moving the variables to the left side and the numbers to the right side:

Simplifying:

Dividing by 4:

Or, equivalently:
