Multiply by -4 on both sides.
this makes z<-8
You want to solve for 'z'.
First combine like terms on either side of the equal sign.
Left side: 9z +2 ----> No like terms, leave alone
Right side: 6z - 10 -z - 4 ----> circle like terms and add
6z -z = 5z
-10 -4 = -14
Now the equation is:
9z + 2 = 5z - 14
Get all the 'z' terms on the left side and all the numbers on right side.
You can move a term to the other side if you flip the sign.
Move 5z to left side, flip the sign to -5z
Move '2' to right side, flip the sign to -2
9z - 5z = -2 -14
Add like terms
4z = -16
Divide by 4 on both sides
z = -4

Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of coins in the bag ⇒ 84
Give that,
Dimes : Nickels : Pennies
3 : 2 : 1
You can see that, there are 6 parts . ( 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 )
And now let us write the types of coins in fractions.
Dimes ⇒ 
Nickels ⇒ 
Pennies ⇒ 
And now they're asking for the number of nickels.
To find that, you can multiply 84 ( number of coins) by it's fraction ( 2/6).
Let us solve.
84 × 


28
Therfore, there are 28 nickels.
