Question

What is the answer to -2K plus 7 = minus 3

Answer 1

So the equation is this. -2k + 7 = -3

First, we combine our like terms. To do this, we must move 7 across to the other side using subtraction. Take away 7 from both sides, and now you have -2k = -10. Then we divide the -2 from both sides. -10/-2 = 5. So the answer is K=5. Hope this helped!

Answer 2

x=5

Explanation:

-2k+7= -3 (subtract 7 on both sides)

-7 = -7

-2k = -10 (divide -2 on both sides)

-2k/ -2 = -10/ -2

k = 5
