Question 1

Write a problem you could represent with the equation 3k - 12 = 6 . Solve the equation and show your solution .

Question 2

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\mathsf{3k - 12 = 6}$

$\large\text{ADD 12 to BOTH SIDES}$

$\textsf{3k - 12 + 12 = 6 + 12}$

$\large\text{Cancel out: -12 + 12 because it gives you 0}$

$\large\text{Keep: 6 + 12 because it helps you solve for k}$

$\mathsf{6 + 12 = 18}$

$\large\text{New equation: 3k = 18}$

$\mathsf{3k = 18}$

$\large\text{DIVIDE 3 to BOTH SIDES}$

$\mathsf{(3k)/(3) = (18)/(3)}$

$\large\text{Cancel out: }\mathsf{(3)/(3)}\large\text{ because that gives you 1 }$

$\large\text{Keep: }\mathsf{(18)/(3)}\large\text{ because that helps you solve for k}$

$\large\text{New equation}\mathsf{(18)/(3)=k}$

$\mathsf{(18)/(3)=18/3\rightarrow\bf 6}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Answer: \huge\bf k = 6}}}\huge\checkmark$

$\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}$
