- (1)/(3) + 3z = - (5)/(6) \\ \\ 2z - (1)/(3) = - (5)/(6) \\ \\ 2z = - (5)/(6) + (1)/(3) \\ \\ 2z = - (1)/(2) \\ \\ = - (1)/(2 * 2) \\ \\ z = - (1)/(4) \\ \\

The final result is: z = - 1/4 or z = -0.25.

- (2)/(3) x + (3)/(7) = (1)/(2) \\ \\ - (2x)/(3) + (3)/(7) = (1)/(2) - (2x)/(3) = (1)/(2) - (3)/(7) \\ \\ - (2x)/(3) = (1)/(14) \\ \\ -2x = (1)/(14) * 3 \\ \\ x = (3)/(14 * -2) \\ \\ x = - (3)/(28) \\ \\

The final result is: x = - 3/28 or x = -0.1071.
