Solve for x z=5(x+h)

$z = 5 (x + h)$

Step 1

Rewrite the equation as $5 (x + h) = z$ .

$5 (x + h) = z$

Step 2

Divide each term in $5 (x + h) = z$ by $5$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $5 (x + h) = z$ by $5$ .

$\frac{5 (x + h)}{5} = \frac{z}{5}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $5$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{5 (x + h)}{5} = \frac{z}{5}$

Divide $x + h$ by $1$ .

$x + h = \frac{z}{5}$

Step 3

Subtract $h$ from both sides of the equation.

$x = \frac{z}{5} - h$
