Question

10 less than k is 35 help please

Answer 1

k-10=35

k=45

Explanation:

Let's write this as an equation.

"10 less than k" means subtract 10 from k.

k-10

"is 35" means equals 35.

k-10=35

If we want to solve for k, we have to get k by itself on one side of the equation.

k-10=35

10 is being subtracted from k. The inverse of subtraction is addition. Add 10 to both sides of the equation.

k-10+10=35+10

k=35+10

k=45

Answer 2

k = 45

Explanation:

We can put this into an equation form:

k - 10 = 35

We can solve for k by adding 10 to both sides:

k = 45
