Question

The variable in the given equation 3(z + 8) = 5 *​

Answer 1

Answer:

3x+8=5x+2

shifting everything to left-hand-side.

3x+8-5x-2=0

grouping similar terms together,

(3x-5x)+(8-2)=0

-2x+6=0

Shifting x term to the right-hand-side

6=2x

Dividing by 2 to both the sides

3=x

Thus, x=3

Answer 2

Given: The equation is$3(z + 8) = 5$.

We have to solve the above equation.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The equation is$3(z + 8) = 5$

$=>3z+24=5\\=>3z=5-24\\=>3z=-19\\\\=>z=\frac{-19}{3}$

Solving the above equation further we get,

$=>z=-6.33$

Hence, after solving the above equation we get, the value of the solution is $-6.333$
