Question

Solve for k.

8k + 2m = 3m + k

Answer 1

Solve for k by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

k = m/7

Answer 2

Let's use algebra and solve for k.

`8k+2m=3m+k\\8k-k=3m-2m` (putting k on one side and m on another)

`7k=m\\k=(m)/(7)`

This is the final answer.

ANSWER:
`k=(m)/(7)`
