Yup. But it is along with division. You would need to get rid of the dividing (-7) first.So how would you get rid of -7?

:( im stupid i dont get it

Answer 26

Btw you should ask your teacher to explain this sort of thing better to you.

Answer 27

Multiply the -7 on both sides, then follow my comment after the pic.
If you want me to explain it better after school, tag me.

Answer 28

? i still dont get it

Answer 29

plz help me

Answer 30

Okay, write down the equation.

Answer 31

Then to get rid of the -7 you need to multiply both sides of the equation by -7. That will cancel it out on the side of k and keep the equation equal.

Answer 32

So you will need to multiply 8 * (-7)

Answer 33

Then you will end up with \[-56 = 2k -10\]

Answer 34

-56

Answer 35

Yup. Then you add 10 to both sides.

Answer 36

-46=12 or 12k

Answer 37

no wait -46=k right?

Answer 38

No. Adding 10 to the side subtracting 10 would just leave 2k

Answer 39

i did add 10

Answer 40

It should be \[-46 = 2k\]

Answer 41

oh ok

Answer 42

You added 10 to 2k, which you can't do because 10 and 2k do not match

Answer 43

Now you need to divide both sides by 2 and there's your answer.

Answer 44

k=-23

Answer 45

Yup. Good job.

Answer 46

Answer 47

No prob. Btw you will want to ask your teacher to teach you this better, because it only gets harder.

Answer 48
