Question

What is the value of z for the equation fraction 1 over 2z = −fraction 3 over 4 + fraction 1 over 4z?

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of z=-0.33 if z is in the denominator(below the line)

The value of z=-3 if z is in the numerator(above the line)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is as follows from the information given if z is the in denominator:

$1/(2*z)=-3/4+1/(4*z)$

$0.5/z=-0.75+0.25/z$

We can multiply the whole equation with z:

$0.5=-0. 75*z+0.25$

Add up all the terms with z and simplify:

$z=-0.25/0.75=-0.33$

The value of z is -0.33

The equation is as follows from the information given if z is the in numerator:

$0.5*z=-0.75+0.25*z$

Add up all the terms with z and simplify:

$z=-0.75/0.25=-3.3$

Answer 2

Z= -3
Turn 1/2 z into 2/4 z and then subtract 1/4 z from both sides
