40x= 280
X=7

<span>See examples before for the method to solving literal equations for a given variable: Solve A = bh for b. Since h is multiplied times b, you must divide both sides by h in order to isolate b. Since (c+d) is divided by 2, you must first multiply both sides of the equation by 2. my own words didnt get off google im a teacher</span>

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
One solution (z = -1)
Discussion:
-2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2) =>
-2z -6 -z = -z -4z - 8 =>
-3z -6 = -5z -8 => add 6 to both sides
-2z = -5z -2 => add 5z to both sides
3z = -5z +5z -3 =>
3z = -3 =>
z = -1
Thank you,
MrB
