Hey there!

Here's the answer.

6(z+8)=-8z-2 --> Write the problem.
6z+48=-8z-2 --> Expand the left side of the equation.
14z+48=-2 --> Add 8z to both sides of the equation.
14z=-50 --> Subtract 48 on both sides of the equation.
z=-50/14 --> Divide 14 on both sides of the equation.
z=-25/7 Reduce the above fraction.

So the answer is -25/7.

Hope it helps!

Solve,

6(z + 8) = -8z - 2

6z + 48 = -8z - 2

Grouping,

6z + 8z = -2 - 48

14z = -50

z = -50/14

z = -25/7

z = -3 4/7

6(z+8) = -8z - 2
6z + 48 = -8z -2 (add 8z on both sides)
14z + 48 = -2 (subtract 48 on both sides)
14z = -50 (divide 14 on both sides)
z = -50/14 or -25/7 or -3(4/7)

6z + 48 = - 8z - 2
6z + 8z = - 2 - 48
14z = - 50
z = - 50 / 14
z = - 25 / 7

just distribute through and solve for z:

6z +48 = -8z - 2 move z's on one side and numbers on the other and solve

14z = -50
z = -50/14 = -3.5714

Distribute: 6z + 48 = -8z -2
Move the ones with z's to one side, and whole numbers to the other by adding and subtracting: 14z = -50
Divide -50 by 14
And you will receive you answer

6Z + 48 = -8Z -2

6Z = -8Z - 50

14Z = -50

Z = -3.57
