z = -11
Steps:
8z+12 = 5z-21
Subtract 12 from both sides
8z+12-12 = 5z-21-12
Simplify
8z = 5z-33
Subtract 5z from both sides
8z-5z = 5z-33-5z
Simplify
3z = -33
Divide both sides by 3
3z/3 = -33/3
Simplify
z = -11
Hope this helps you! (:

Answer:
The number is 92
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x equal the number
It is tripled
3x
Then it is tripled again
3(3x)
That equals 828
3(3x) = 828
9x =828
Divide each side by 9
9x/9 =828/9
x =92
