Full solution

Q. Solve for zz.\newline8=z+68 = |z| + 6\newlineWrite your answers as integers or as proper or improper fractions in simplest form.\newlinez=z = _____ or z=z = _____
  1. Isolate absolute value term: Isolate the absolute value term.\newlineSubtract 66 from both sides of the equation to isolate z|z|.\newline86=z+668 - 6 = |z| + 6 - 6\newline2=z2 = |z|
  2. Solve for zz: Solve for zz.\newlineSince z=2|z| = 2, zz can be either 22 or 2-2 because the absolute value of both 22 and 2-2 is 22.\newlineSo, z=2z = 2 or zz00.
