To find out which equation is negative when you plug in z=8, then plug it in and find out! :D
A) –2z – 14 = -2(8)-14 = -16-14 = -30
-2x-14 is negative when z = 8. So A is one possible answer :)
B) –25 + 4z = -25 + 4(8) = -25 + 32 = 7
7 is positive when z = 8, so B is not a correct answer.
C) –2z + 15 = -2(8) + 15 = -16 + 15 = -1
-1 is negative when z 8, So C is another correct answer choice.
D) 30 – 3z = 30 - 3(8) = 30 - 24 = 6
6 is positive when z=8, So D is not a correct answer.
To summarize, your answer would be A and C.
