Follow PEMDAS.
You would first do your distributive property which is, -5(z+2). You would multiply -5 to z and -5 to 2 which will give you -5z + -10.
so now you have 2z-5z+ -10= -8 - 2z. Now you must isolate the variable. So subtract -8 to -10 which will give you -18.
Now you have the equation 2z-5z-18=-2z
Now combine like terms. 2z-5z= -3z
Now you have the equation -3z-18=-2z
Now you must move the -3z to the other side of the equal sign by adding the opposite which is +3z to -2z which will give you +1z
Now you have -18= 1z
Now you divide. -18 divided by 1 is -18.
So your final answer will be -18=z
Answer: x=13
explanation:
-2x+6=-20
subtract 6 from both sides
-2x=-26
divide -2 by both sides
two negatives equals a positive
x=13
Answer:
13.86
Step-by-step explanation:
formula for cont. compounding interest is
Amount = Principal * e^rt
in this case the principal is 5000, and the amount is 10000 (double). the rate is 5% or 0.05. and t is what we are solving for.
sub in to get:
10000 = 5000e^0.05t
2 = e^0.05t
now convert to log form.
ln 2 = 0.05t
ln 2 / 0.05 = t
punch that into your calculator and you get 13.86 years
Answer: 0.5
