30kx - 6kx = 8

Simplify:

24kx = 8

Divide both sides by 24k:

x = 8/24k

Simplify by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 8:

x = 1/3k

Answer:

the value of x is:
(1)/(3k)

Explanation:

Given the equation:


30kx-6kx = 8 ....[1]

Solve for x:

Like terms are those terms which have same variable to the same power.

Combine like terms in [1] we have;


24 kx = 8

Divide both sides by 24 k we have;


x = (8)/(24k)

Simplify:


x = (1)/(3k)

Therefore, the value of x is:
(1)/(3k)
