A: -36
B: -12
C: -70
D: -74

Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
12 = [tex]\frac{2 + z}{-6}[/tex]
(-6)12 = [tex](-6)\frac{2 + z}{-6}[/tex]
-72 = 2 + z
-2 -2
-74 = z
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides by - 6
12*-6 = [-6 (2 + z) / - 6 ] Cancel the - 6 s on the right.
- 72 = (2 + z) Remove the brackets and switch
z + 2 = - 72 Subtract 2 from both sides
z +2 - 2 = -72 -2
z = - 74
