solve z-6/z+3 =2/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

z=17/3

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

cross multiply \[\frac{z - 6}{z+3}=\frac{2}{5}\] then \[5(z-6) = 2(z+3)\] all you need to do is expand , and collect like terms... then solve for z

OpenStudy (anonymous):

z= -24/7 ??

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well you should have had 5z - 30 = 2z + 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

z=12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5z-2z=6+30 3z=36 z=36/3 z=12
