Solve for z:
5 (z + 6) - 2 = 9 z
5 (z + 6) = 5 z + 30:
5 z + 30 - 2 = 9 z
Add like terms. 30 - 2 = 28:
5 z + 28 = 9 z
Subtract 9 z from both sides:
(5 z - 9 z) + 28 = 9 z - 9 z
5 z - 9 z = -4 z:
-4 z + 28 = 9 z - 9 z
9 z - 9 z = 0:
28 - 4 z = 0
Subtract 28 from both sides:
(28 - 28) - 4 z = -28
28 - 28 = 0:
-4 z = -28
Divide both sides of -4 z = -28 by -4:
(-4 z)/(-4) = (-28)/(-4)
(-4)/(-4) = 1:
z = (-28)/(-4)
The gcd of 28 and -4 is 4, so (-28)/(-4) = (-(4×7))/(4 (-1)) = 4/4×(-7)/(-1) = (-7)/(-1):
z = (-7)/(-1)
(-7)/(-1) = (-1)/(-1)×7 = 7:
Answer: z = 7
Its D(5,-4) XD ;p
because I did it and got it right but don't take my word for it just ask the other suggestions <span />
Answer:
7th week
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent the number of weeks as x
Jill begins the summer with $500 in her savings account. Each week, she withdraws $20.
$500 - $20× x
500 - 20x
Her brother, Sam,starts the summer with $150 in his account. He adds $30 to his account each week.
$150 + $30 × x
150 + 30x
At what week will both Jill and Sam have the same amount in their account?
We solve this be Equating both Equations together
Jill = Sam
500 - 20x = 150 + 30x
Collect like terms
500 - 150 = 30x + 20x
350 = 50x
Divide both sides by 50
50x/50 = 350/50
x = 7 weeks
Therefore, at the 7 week, Jill and sam would have the same amount in their accounts
