Question

2k+16=30 i need help with this before March 2nd ASAP

Answer 1

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\huge\textbf{Equation:}`

`\mathbf{2k + 16 = 30}`

`\huge\textbf{Solving for:}`

`\mathbf{2k + 16 = 30}`

`\huge\textbf{Subtract \boxed{\bf 16} to both sides:}`

`\mathbf{2k + 16 - 16 = 30 - 16}`

`\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}`

`\mathbf{3k = 30 - 16}`

`\mathbf{2k = 14}`

`\huge\textbf{Divide \boxed{\bf 2} to both sides:}`

`\mathbf{(2k)/(2) = (14)/(2)}`

`\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}`

`\mathbf{x = (14)/(2)}`

`\mathbf{x = 14/2}`

`\mathbf{x = 7}`

`\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer should be:}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{k = }\frak{\ 7}}\huge\checkmark`

Answer 2

k = 7

Explanation:

The goal is to solve for the variable k in this problem.

To do this, we need to get k by itself!

2k + 16 = 30

Start by subtracting the 16 over from the left side to the right

2k + 16 - 16 = 30 - 16

Simplify by subtracting 16 from 16 on the left side (which is 0) and 16 from 30 on the right side (which is 14).

2k = 14

Then finish by dividing both sides by 2 to get k by itself.

`(2k)/(2)` =
`(14)/(2)`

Simplify by dividing 2 by 2 on the left side (which is 1) and 14 by 2 on the right side (which is 7).

k = 7
