Solve the equation.


12=2+z/-6

Answer 1

`\boxed{\bold{z=-60}}`

Explanation:

Switch Sides

`\bold{2+(z)/(-6)=12}`

Subtract 2 From Both Sides

`\bold{2+(z)/(-6)-2=12-2}`

Simplify

`\bold{(z)/(-6)=10}`

Multiply Both Sides By -6

`\bold{(z\left(-6\right))/(-6)=10\left(-6\right)}`

Simplify

`\bold{z=-60}`
