Question

Can someone solve 14 = 8k - 3 + 1 step by step please?

Answer 1

14 = 8k - 3 + 1 ; k=2

Explanation:

14= 8k - 3 + 1

switch sides:

8k -3 + 1 =14

add/subtract the numbers:

8k-2+2=14+2

simplify:

8k=16

divide both sides by 8:

8k/8 = 16/8

simplify:

k=2

Answer 2

k=2

Explanation:

First your going to switch sides

8k - 3 + 1 = 14

Then your going to do - 3 + 1 = -2

Then you get this equation

8k - 2 = 14

Then your going to add 2 to both sides

8k - 2 + 2 = 14 + 2

Then simplify

8k = 16

Then divide both sides by 8

8k/8 = 16/8

Then simplify again and heres

your answer

k=2
