Is this the same question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YES

OpenStudy (pawanyadav):

If yes than put z=-3 Again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@goopyfish908 what you need to do is replace all of the z's with -3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (pawanyadav):

Lets Solve the numerator first

OpenStudy (pawanyadav):

What is 4(-3)-3=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the equation should then look like this: \[\frac{ 4z-3 }{ z+7 }=\frac{ 4(-3)-3 }{ -3+7 }\]
