Answer:

One solution.

Explanation:

We have been given an equation
20z-5-12z=10z+8. We are asked to find the number of solutions for our given equation.

Let us solve our given equation. Upon combining like terms, we will get:


20z-12z-5=10z+8


8z-5=10z+8


8z-10z-5=10z-10z+8


-2z-5=8


-2z-5+5=8+5


-2z=13


(-2z)/(-2)=(13)/(-2)


z=-(13)/(2)

Therefore, our given equation has only one solution.
