Answer:

z = 17

Explanation:

Hi! Our task is to solve the equation
\sf{3z-2z=17}.

So, first, we will simplify the left-hand side by combining the like terms:


\sf{z=17}, which is our final solution.

Therefore, the value of z is
\bf{z=17}.

\underline{\underline{\bigstar\qquad\boldsymbol{\sf{Checking\:Your\:Solution}}\qquad\bigstar}}

We will now make sure that z = 17 is indeed the solution to this equation. The way we'll do that is we'll substitute 17 for z:


\twoheadrightarrow\qquad\bf{3\cdot17-2\cdot17=17}


\twoheadrightarrow\qquad\bf{51-34=17}


\twoheadrightarrow\qquad\bf{17\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}17}

A true statement indicates that z = 17 is indeed a solution of this equation.
