Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
−2z+1=011z4−4=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
−2z+1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−2z=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−2z=−1
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
2z=1
Divide both sides
