Answer:</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
z=18</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
Step-by-step explanation:</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
2+4(2z+3)=15</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
2+4(2z+3)=15</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
2+(4)(2z)+(4)(3)=15(Distribute)</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
2+8z+12=15</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
(8z)+(2+12)=15(Combine Like Terms)</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
8z+14=15</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
8z+14=15</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
8z+14−14=15−14</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
8z=1</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
Step 3: Divide both sides by 8.</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
8z8=18z=18</em></u></h2>
