Question

What is the solution of the equation 10(z − 1) = 50 when solving for z ?(1 point)
Complete the statement: z =
.

Answer 1

What is the solution to the equation 5(x − 10) = 65 when solving for x ?(1 point)
Complete the statement: x =
.

Answer 2

To solve the equation \( 10(z - 1) = 50 \) for \( z \), follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides by 10:
\[
z - 1 = \frac{50}{10} = 5
\]

2. Add 1 to both sides:
\[
z = 5 + 1 = 6
\]

So the solution is:
\[
z = 6
\]

Answer 3

To solve the equation \( 5(x - 10) = 65 \) for \( x \), follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides by 5:
\[
x - 10 = \frac{65}{5} = 13
\]

2. Add 10 to both sides:
\[
x = 13 + 10 = 23
\]

So the solution is:
\[
x = 23
\]
