Answer 3

Hola hola!
Reorder the terms:
6 = -4 + -1z

Solving
6 = -4 + -1z

Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right.

Answer 4

Then
Add 'z' to each side of the equation.
6 + z = -4 + -1z + z

Combine like terms: -1z + z = 0
6 + z = -4 + 0
6 + z = -4

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + z = -4 + -6

Answer 5

Next
Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + z = -4 + -6
z = -4 + -6

Combine like terms: -4 + -6 =?

Answer 6

-10?

Answer 7

or u can reach there like add 4 on both sides...
u will have
10 = -z
and after tht multiply by -1 on bth sides
so z = -10

Answer 8

yes z = -10! Very well done.
