Q. Solve for zz. Reduce any fractions to lowest terms. Don't round your answer, and don't use mixed fractions.\newline4z+3117z+23-4z + 31 \geq 17z + 23
  1. Rearranging the inequality: First, we want to get all the zz terms on one side of the inequality and the constant terms on the other side. We can do this by adding 4z4z to both sides and subtracting 2323 from both sides.\newline4z+31+4z17z+23+4z-4z + 31 + 4z \geq 17z + 23 + 4z\newline312317z+4z31 - 23 \geq 17z + 4z
  2. Simplifying the inequality: Now, we simplify both sides of the inequality by combining like terms.\newline3123=831 - 23 = 8\newline17z+4z=21z17z + 4z = 21z\newlineSo, we have:\newline821z8 \geq 21z
  3. Isolating z: Next, we want to isolate z by dividing both sides of the inequality by 2121. Since we are dividing by a positive number, the direction of the inequality will not change.\newline82121z21\frac{8}{21} \geq \frac{21z}{21}
  4. Solution for z: After dividing, we get the solution for z.\newline821z\frac{8}{21} \geq z\newlineOr, we can write it as:\newlinez821z \leq \frac{8}{21}
