Answer:z=5 the last option I hope this is helpful to you and anyone else who needs help

Explanation:

2(3z-2)+8=34

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

6z-4+8=34

Calculate the sum

6z+4=34

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

6z=34-4

Subtract the numbers
6z=30

then Divide both sides of the equation by 6

z=5
