Question

Solve kx + 8 = 4 for x.

Answer 1

k×x+8=4
k×x=4-8
k×x=-4
x=-4/k

Answer 2

The required solution for x is
`x=-(4)/(k)`

Explanation:

Given : Equation
`kx+8=4`

To find : Solve the given equation for x?

Solution :

Step 1- Write the equation,

`kx+8=4`

Step 2 - Subtract 8 both side,

`kx+8-8=4-8`

`kx=-4`

Step 3- divide both side by k,

`(kx)/(k)=(-4)/(k)`

`x=-(4)/(k)`

Therefore, The required solution for x is
`x=-(4)/(k)`
