\frac{5}{8} = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6} z

z = - \frac{3}{4}

Decimal Notation

z = - 0.75

Solution steps

\frac{5}{8} = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6} z

Switch sides

\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6} z = \frac{5}{8}

Move

\frac{1}{2}

to the right side

- \frac{1}{6} z = \frac{1}{8}

Multiply both sides by

- 6

z = - \frac{3}{4}

2 x = 5 x - 6

3 (- 2 - 3 x) = - 9 x - 4

\frac{3 v + 12}{6} = \frac{4 v}{3}

- \frac{17}{4} s + 8 = \frac{3}{2} (\frac{1}{2} s + 6)

2 x + 3 = 35
