0\left(0-2\right)=-5z
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
0\left(-2\right)=-5z
Subtract 2 from 0 to get -2.
0=-5z
Multiply 0 and -2 to get 0.
-5z=0
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
z=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since -5 is not equal to 0, z must be equal to 0.
