Question

-5k+4(k+6)=-4(2k+1)...

Answer 1

-5k + 4(k + 6) = -4(2k + 1) Given
-5k + 4k + 24 = -8k - 4 Distributive Property
-k + 24 = -8k - 4 Combine like terms
7k + 24 = -4 Add 8k to both sides
7k = -28 Subtract 24 from both sides
k = -4 Divide both sides by 7

Answer:
k = -4

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hey there!

First: Distribute the problem

Like: 4(k) and 4(6) (other half) -4(2k) and 4!)

Problem become:
`-5k + 4k + 24 = -8k + 1`

Second: Combine your like terms

Like:
`-5k + 4k + 24 = -8k - 4`

Problem becomes:
`-k + 24 = -8k - 4`

Third: add the value
`8k` to your sides

Like:
`-k + 24 + 8k \\ \\ = -8k - 4 + 8k`

Problem becomes:
`7k + 24 = -4`

Fourth: subtract by
`24` on each of your sides

Like:
`7k + 24 - 24 \\ \\ = -4 - 24`

Problem becomes:
`7k = -28`

Fifth: divide both sides by
`7`

Like:
`(7k)/(7) = (-28)/(7)`


`Answer: k =-4`

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
