Question

Solve -6(5-2z)+5z=8z-3(16-3z)

Answer 1

first multiply out using the distributive law

Answer 2

-30+12z+5z=8z-42+9z

Answer 3

then collect like terms

Answer 4

\[-30+12z+5z=8z-42+9z\]
\[-30+17x=17x-42\]

Answer 5

42 -->48

Answer 6

then notice you have the same number of "z" on both sides

Answer 7

so there is no way you can solve this, i.e. there is no solution

Answer 8

and mysesshou is right,
\[-3\times 16 = -48\] not what i wrote.
still no solution

Answer 9

so there is no answer to this its just another equation?

Answer 10

-6(5-2z)+5z=8z-3(16-3z)
-30+12x+5z = 8z-48+9z
-30+17z= 17z-48

Doesn't look like it.
I get the same thing as satellite73

Answer 11

i have been wrecking my brain for nothing lol

Answer 12

no matter what you substitute in for z, it is not equal
\[\neq\]

Answer 13

okay thanks guys
