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
X will equal 40.
EXPLANATION: since they’re parallel and these are opposite angles, add them together to equal 180.
x+(20)+3x=180.
add common variables.
4x+20=180
subtract 29 from both sides
4x=160
divide each side by 4 so isolate x
x=40
Answer:
85-86%
Step-by-step explanation:
Make it an equation
You want to find the percent out of a hundred, so 42 is 100 since it is all of the questions and 36 is the unknown percent X
36/42 = X/100
36 X
42 100
Cross multiply
Do math and solve for X
36 x 100 = 42 x X
3600=42X
X=85.71
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation is 
The second equation is 
When we graph these two equations, <em>they will meet at a point which represent the solution of the two equations</em>.
We can solve the two equations simultaneously to determine their point of intersection.
Let us substitute the second equation into the first equation to get;

Multiply through by 2 to get;

Group similar terms to obtain;

Simplify;

Divide both sides by 3;

Put
into the second equation;



Therefore the graphs of the two functions intersect at (2,3)
