Answer:

10 = 3(z + 1) + 1

To start off we simplify boths sides of the equation,

10=3(z+1)+1

10=(3)(z)+(3)(1)+1

10=3z+3+1

Combining like terms*

10=3z+4

Now you flip the equation:

3z+4=10

Now Subtract 4 from both sides.

3z+4−4=10−4

3z=6

Divide by 3**

Andd you gettt

z=2

Explanation:

Hope this helps :)
