Full solution

Q. Solve for zz.\newlinez5=12z - 5 = 12\newlinez=z = _____
  1. Add 55 to both sides: z5=12z - 5 = 12 \newlineSolve for zz.\newlineTo isolate zz, we need to get rid of the 5-5 that is subtracted from it. We can do this by adding 55 to both sides of the equation.\newlinez5+5=12+5z - 5 + 5 = 12 + 5
  2. Simplify the equation: Now, we simplify both sides of the equation. z=17z = 17
