Answer 1

To solve the equation 2z - 5 = 11, we need to isolate the variable z.

First, let's add 5 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the -5:

2z - 5 + 5 = 11 + 5
2z = 16

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for z:

2z/2 = 16/2
z = 8

Therefore, the solution to the equation is z = 8.
