Question

Show work. 4k-6=7k

Answer 1

so, yea, first u take away the 4k from each side, so 4k - 6 - 4k = 7k - 4k, becomes 6 = 3k. From there, u basically just divide both sides by three (because the k is multiplied by 3).

Answer 2

This question is solved algebraically by isolating the variable(k) on one side of the equation by doing the same thing to each side of the equation. Here is another example:

3a-2=8a

First, we can subtract 3a from both sides to get a on one side of the equation, isolating a over there and allowing us to solve further.

-3a -3a
-2 = 8a

Now, we have the variable and its coefficient isolated, but we need to get rid of the coefficient to fully get the answer. So, since it is being multiplied, we do the opposite and divide.

-2/8 = 8a/8

Now, simplify.

-1/4 = a

I hope this helped, and I'm sorry if you already knew most of this and this was unnecessary.
