Question

solve.
z-5/4=8

Answer 1

Hint: Multiply both sides by 4 to get

z - 5 = 32

Now, continue solving for z

Answer 2

37

Answer 3

thanks

Answer 4

Wait... is it...

\(\large\frac{z-5}{4} = 8\) or \(\large z -\frac{5}{4} = 8\)

Answer 5

the first one

Answer 6

Okay, yeah, then z = 37 is correct. But I'm only showing you that because you should distinguish using parentheses to ensure that no one confuses one with the other. For your problem, you want to write it like this:

(z-5)/4 = 8

Answer 7

This way, we know that the expression z - 5 is in the numerator

Answer 8

oh okay thanks

Answer 9

what about this one... (5-n)/3=4

Answer 10

Same process. You can do that one yourself. Just multiply both sides by 3 and continue solving.

Answer 11

would it be 17

Answer 12

Good job

Answer 13
