Question

If 6x=42 and xk=2 what is the value of k

Answer 1

k=2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 6x=42, we have:

`\begin{gathered} 6x=42 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 6} \\ (6x)/(6)=(42)/(6) \\ x=7 \end{gathered}`

Since x=7, we substitute into xk=2.

`\begin{gathered} xk=2 \\ 7* k=2 \\ k=(2)/(7) \end{gathered}`

The value of k is 2/7.
