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
First, you plug your given values in. Since x is 1.5, it will be multiples by 2x to get 3.2. Since y is -3, it will be added to 1 to get -2. Finally, the two are multiplied together to get -6.4 if I am correct.
Answer:
C i think but im not 100% sure
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this we are going to use the free distance fallen formula:

where

is the distance

is the gravity of Earth


is the time in seconds
We know from our problem that the
penny fell off the top of the building and hit the sidewalk below 3.1 seconds later, so

. Lets replace the value in our formula:



meters
We can conclude that the penny fell a distance of 47.098 meters
The left side of this equation is already a perfect square: <span>x^2-10x+25=35.
Rewriting it, we get (x-5)^2 = 35.
Taking the sqrt of both sides, x-5 = sqrt(35).
Solving for x: x = 5 plus or minus sqrt(35) (answers)</span>
