Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                -2*z+62+4*z-16-(-2*(1+2*z))=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (2z + 46) -  (0 -  2 • (2z + 1))  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   6z + 48  =   6 • (z + 8) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  6 • (z + 8)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    6   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    z+8 = 0 

 Subtract  8  from both sides of the equation : 
                      z = -8
