To solve for z, let's first use the distributive property on the right side of the equation to make it:


5z-14<-28-2z

Now, add 2z to both sides to get rid of it on one of the sides:


7z-14<-28

In the same manner, add 14 to both sides:


7z< -14

Now divide by 7 (you only need to switch the sign if dividing by a negative number - so not in this case):


z < -(14)/(7)


z < -2

Therefore, your answer is: z < -2. Hope I could help you out!
