Steps to Solve a Multi-Step Equation Quick Check 2 of 52 of 5 Items Question What is the solution of the equation 10z − 6 = 24 solving for z ?(1 point) Responses 0.4 0.4 3 3 −3 negative 3 1.8
To solve the equation 10z - 6 = 24 for z, we need to isolate the variable z.
The first step is to add 6 to both sides of the equation:
10z - 6 + 6 = 24 + 6
This simplifies to:
10z = 30
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 10 to solve for z:
10z/10 = 30/10
This simplifies to:
z = 3
Therefore, the solution to the equation 10z - 6 = 24 is z = 3.
