$z + \frac{13}{9} = - \frac{13}{9}$

Step 1

Subtract $\frac{13}{9}$ from both sides of the equation.

$z = - \frac{13}{9} - \frac{13}{9}$

Step 2

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$z = \frac{- 13 - 13}{9}$

Step 3

Subtract $13$ from $- 13$ .

$z = \frac{- 26}{9}$

Step 4

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$z = - \frac{26}{9}$

Step 5

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

$z = - \frac{26}{9}$

Decimal Form:

$z = - 2.\overline{8}$

Mixed Number Form:
