Solution for -2(z-4)-(3z-z)=-2-(6z-2) equation:


Simplifying
-2(z + -4) + -1(3z + -1z) = -2 + -1(6z + -2)

Reorder the terms:
-2(-4 + z) + -1(3z + -1z) = -2 + -1(6z + -2)
(-4 * -2 + z * -2) + -1(3z + -1z) = -2 + -1(6z + -2)
(8 + -2z) + -1(3z + -1z) = -2 + -1(6z + -2)

Combine like terms: 3z + -1z = 2z
8 + -2z + -1(2z) = -2 + -1(6z + -2)

Remove parenthesis around (2z)
8 + -2z + -1 * 2z = -2 + -1(6z + -2)

Multiply -1 * 2
8 + -2z + -2z = -2 + -1(6z + -2)

Combine like terms: -2z + -2z = -4z
8 + -4z = -2 + -1(6z + -2)

Reorder the terms:
8 + -4z = -2 + -1(-2 + 6z)
8 + -4z = -2 + (-2 * -1 + 6z * -1)
8 + -4z = -2 + (2 + -6z)

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
8 + -4z = 0 + -6z
8 + -4z = -6z

Solving
8 + -4z = -6z

Solving for variable 'z'.

Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '6z' to each side of the equation.
8 + -4z + 6z = -6z + 6z

Combine like terms: -4z + 6z = 2z
8 + 2z = -6z + 6z

Combine like terms: -6z + 6z = 0
8 + 2z = 0

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + 2z = 0 + -8
