Question

Solve for k.
6 + -4k = 18
k=

Answer 1

k=-3

6*(-4k)=18

subtract 6 from both sides

-4k=12

divide by -4 on both sides

k=-3

Answer 2

`\sf \: k = - 3`

Explanation:

Now we have to,

→ Find the required value of k.

The equation is,

→ 6 + (-4k) = 18

Then the value of k will be,

→ 6 + (-4k) = 18

→ 6 - 4k = 18

→ -4k = 18 - 6

→ -4k = 12

→ k = 12 ÷ (-4)

→ [ k = -3 ]

Hence, the value of k is -3.
