Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Question: 5 - 7(z+1) = 7(-9-3z)
We multiply the number in front of the bracket first, since that is multiplication.
--> 5 -7z -7 = -63 - 21z
--> -7z -2 = -63 - 21z
Now, we move all the z and all the numbers to each side.
--> -7z +21z = -63 +2
--> 14z = -61
--> z = -61/14
This cannot be simplified further, so z is -61/14.
