How do you solve 2 + 8 - z = - 24 for z

z=34

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 8 - z = - 24

add

10-z = - 24

subtract 10 from each side

10-z-10 = - 24-10

-z = - 34

multiply by - 1

-1*-z = - 34 * - 1

z = 34

Your answer is z = 34 here's how to get it

Step-by-step explanation:

combine 2+8 and get 10

10 - Z = - 24

Next cancel out the 10 to get z by itself so subtract 10 from both sides

10-10-z = - 24-10

-z = - 34

now divide - z to remove the negative

-z/-z = - 34/-z

here is your answer

z = -34
