Answer:

Explanation:

Simplifying

14 + -3z = 0

Solving

14 + -3z = 0

Solving for variable 'z'.

Move all terms containing z to the left, and all other terms to the right.

Add '-14' to each side of the equation.

14 + -14 + -3z = 0 + -14

Combine like terms: 14 + -14 = 0

0 + -3z = 0 + -14

-3z = 0 + -14

Combine like terms: 0 + -14 = -14

-3z = -14

Divide each side by '-3'.

z = 4.666666667

Simplifying

z = 4.666666667
