Solution, solve\:for\:z,\:2+8-z=24\quad :\quad z=-14


Steps:


2+8-z=24


\mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:2+8=10,\\-z+10=24


\mathrm{Subtract\:}10\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides},\\-z+10-10=24-10


Simplify,\\-z=14


\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-1,\\(-z)/(-1)=(14)/(-1)


Simplify,\\z=-14


\mathrm{The\:Correct\:Answer\:is\:z=-14}


\mathrm{Hope\:This\:Helps!!!}
