Hey there!
We'll use our keyword of, which means we're multiplying. For example:
1/2 of 6 means 1/2 times 6, which equals three.
In our case, we want one half of z, meaning one half times z. That means we have:
[tex] \frac{1}{2}z [/tex]
Now, we have to add the "five more". This means the quantity of one half of z is increased by 5, also known as adding 5. Therefore, we have:
[tex] \frac{1}{2}z +5[/tex]
Hope this helps!
