Q. Solve.\newline7(z+3)=28 7(z+3)=28 \newlineAnswer: z= z=
  1. Distribute 77: Distribute the 77 to both terms inside the parentheses.\newlineWe need to apply the distributive property, which states that a(b+c)=ab+aca(b + c) = ab + ac. In this case, we have 7(z+3)7(z + 3), which becomes 7z+7×37z + 7\times3.\newline7(z+3)=7z+217(z + 3) = 7z + 21
  2. Set up equation: Set up the equation with the distributed terms.\newlineNow we have the equation 7z+21=287z + 21 = 28.
  3. Subtract 2121: Subtract 2121 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with the variable zz. To solve for zz, we need to get zz by itself on one side of the equation. We do this by subtracting 2121 from both sides. 7z+2121=28217z + 21 - 21 = 28 - 21 This simplifies to: 7z=77z = 7
  4. Divide by 77: Divide both sides of the equation by 77 to solve for zz.\newlineTo find the value of zz, we divide both sides of the equation by 77.\newline7z7=77\frac{7z}{7} = \frac{7}{7}\newlineThis simplifies to:\newlinez=1z = 1
