It looks like there is a mistake in the equation. There is an extra equal sign after 40z.
If we remove the extra equal sign, the corrected equation becomes:
2(4z+2) + 5 = 40z
To solve for z, we can simplify the equation:
8z + 4 + 5 = 40z
Combine the constants:
8z + 9 = 40z
Next, we can move the variables to one side and the constants to the other side:
8z - 40z = -9
Combine like terms:
-32z = -9
Now we can solve for z by dividing both sides of the equation by -32:
z = (-9) / (-32)
Simplifying the fraction gives us:
z = 9/32
2(4z+2)+5=40z=

Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the equation correctly:
2(4z + 2) + 5 = 40z
First, distribute the 2 to the terms inside the parentheses:
8z + 4 + 5 = 40z
Combine like terms:
8z + 9 = 40z
Next, move all terms involving z to one side of the equation:
8z - 40z = -9
Combine like terms:
-32z = -9
To solve for z, divide both sides of the equation by -32:
z = (-9) / (-32)
Simplifying the fraction gives us:
z = 9/32
Therefore, the solution to the equation is z = 9/32.
