<span>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

</span>1/2 (6−z) = <span>z
</span><span>
(1/2) (6) + (1/2) (-z) = z (distribute)

3 + -1/2z = z

-1/2z + 3 = z

</span><span>Step 2: Subtract z from both sides.
</span><span>
-1/2z + 3 - z = z - z

-3/2z + 3 = 0

</span><span>Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.
</span><span>
-3/2z + 3 - 3 = 0 - 3

-3/2z = -3

</span><span>Step 4: Multiply both sides by 2/(-3).
</span><span>
(2/-3) * (-3/2z) = (2/-3) * (-3)

z = 2

Answer: z = 2

I hope this helps you!:) Sorry it took me so long!

Find the stationary points on the curve y = (3x – 1)(x - 2)^4.
Stels [109]

Step-by-step explanation:

by using y=uv derivative formula and stationary mean y' = 0

y' = 3(x–2)⁴ + 3(3x–1)(x–2)³ = 0

cancel 3 and factorize

(x–2+3x–1)(x–2)³ = 0

x = ¾ or x = 2

we got point \left(\frac{3}{4},\frac{5^5}{4^5}\right) and (2,0)

Let the three consecutive equals:
x, x+1, x+2

sum:
x+(x+1)+(x+2) = 36
3x + 3 = 36
x+1 = 36/3
x+1 = 12
x=12-1
x=11

Can someone explain to me how to solve this equation<br>15x +-6 = 8​
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

x=0.933333

Step-by-step explanation:

First you add 6 to both sides of the equation

15x - 6 + 6 = 8 +6

That gives you 15x = 14

Then you divide 15 on both sides of the equation

That gives you x = 14/15 = 0.93333
