Answer:
All real numbers are solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
−14(z − 5) = −14z + 70
[ Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation ]
−14(z − 5) = −14z + 70
(−14)(z) + (−14)(−5) = −14z + 70 (Distribute)
−14z + 70 = −14z + 70
[ Step 2: Add 14z to both sides ]
−14z + 70 + 14z = −14z + 70 + 14z
70 = 70
[ Step 3: Subtract 70 from both sides ]
70 − 70 = 70 − 70
0 = 0
Therefore, all real numbers are solutions.
