Question

Solve 5x + 14 = k for x. A. B. x = k – 14 C. x = 5k – 14 D.

Answer 1

4x + 14 = k

Do the opposite of PEMDAS
Isolate the x, subtract 14 from both sides
4x + 14 (-14) = k (-14)

4x = k - 14
divide 4 from both sides
4x/4 = (k-14)/4

x = (k-14)/4 is your answer

hope this helps

Answer 2

The value of the equation for x is
`x=(k-14)/(5)`.

Explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

`5x+14=k`

We need to solve the equation for x.

Subtract 14 from both the sides.

`5x+14-14=k-14`

`5x=k-14`

Divide both side by 5.

`(5x)/(5)=(k-14)/(5)`

`x=(k-14)/(5)`

Hence, the value of the equation for x is
`x=(k-14)/(5)`.
