What is the solution to the equation? 1 minus z/5=9 Answers: A. z = 50   B. z = 44   C. z = –2   D. z = – 40



Answer :

[tex] 1 - \frac{z}{5} = 9 [/tex]

add [tex]\frac{z}{5}[/tex] to both sides.

[tex] 1 = 9 + \frac{z}{5}[/tex]

subtract 9 to both sides.

[tex] -8 = \frac{z}{5}[/tex] 

multiply 5 to both sides.

[tex] -40 = z [/tex]

Your answer is D) z = -40
