Given:
-P(51+z) = dz +84
Solve for z
Solution:
Since it is state that the function P(51 + z) contains + 51, we need to subtract 51, to find the original value of the function and later find the value of z.
-P(z) = dz + 84 - 51
-P(z) = dz + 33
The function also contains a negative sign, therefore we need to multiply both sides by - in order to get the positive value of z.
P(z) = -(dz + 33)
= -dz - 33
Transpose -33 on the other side of the equation, it must be taken to note that when transposing a number, the sign changes.
-dz = 33
Divide both sides by -d in order to find the value of z.
z = -33/d
Final answer:
z = -33/d
