Question

16= -5+z/4
a. 69
b. -1
c. 9
d. 59

Answer 1

`16 = (-5+z)/(4)`

Multiply both sides by 4


`16* 4 = (-5+z)/(4) * 4`


`64 = -5+z`

Rearrange the terms


`64 = z - 5`

Add 5 on both sides.


`64 + 5 = z - 5 + 5`


`\boxed{\bf{z = 69}}`


Your final answer is a. 69.

Answer 2

If you would like to solve the equation 16 = (- 5 + z) / 4, you can do this using the following steps:

16 = (- 5 + z) / 4 /*4
16 * 4 = - 5 + z
16 * 4 + 5 = z
z = 69

The correct result would be a. 69.
