Question

Please help! Would appreciate it!

22k - 39 = 11k + 2(10k+12)


PLEASE show your steps!

Answer 1

Answer: K = -7

Explanation:

22k - 39 = 11k + 20k + 24

22k - 39 = 31k + 24

22k - 31k = 24 + 39

-9k = 63

K = -7

Answer 2

`k=-7`

Explanation:

`22k-39=11k+2\left(10k+12\right)`

Apply the Distributive Property

`22k-39=11k+20k+24`

Combine like terms

`22k-39=31k+24`

Rearrange variables to the left side of the equation

`22k-31k=24+39`

Combine like terms

`-9k=24+39`

Calculate the sum or difference

`-9k=63`

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable

`k=-(63)/(9)`

Cross out the common factor

`k=-7`

I hope this helps you
