Question

38 + 7k = 8 (k + 4)
Step by step please​

Answer 1

k= 6

Explanation:

38 + 7k = 8 ( k + 4 ) Distribute

↓ ↓

38 +7k = 8k + 32 Pass the " 7k" to the other side and it will become

⤴ negative.

38 = 8k - 7k + 32 Now combine like terms .

38 = k + 32 Pass the " 32 " to the other side and it will

become negative .

38 - 32 = k Now combine like terms again .

6 = k And then you will get your answer :)

Answer 2

38 + 7k=8(k+4)

Distribute the 8 to the terms in the parentheses.

38 + 7k=8k + 32

Subtract 8k from both sides.

38 + 7k - 8k=32

Combine the like terms (k).

38 - k=32

Subtract 38 from both sides.

-k=-6

Divide both sides by -1.

k=6
