Answer:

a)

[tex]a=23-z[/tex]

b)

First of all, I divided both sides by 2, simplified, and then subtracted z from both sides. Then, I got the final result for 'a'.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Solving the equation

Given the expression

[tex]2\left(z+a\right)=46[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2\left(z+a\right)}{2}=\frac{46}{2}[/tex]

simplify

[tex]z+a=23[/tex]

subtract z from both sides

[tex]z+a-z=23-z[/tex]

[tex]a=23-z[/tex]

Thus, the value of a:

[tex]a=23-z[/tex]

b) Work Process

First of all, I divided both sides by 2, simplified, and then subtracted z from both sides. Then, I got the final result for 'a'.
