add 26.7 to 12.8 to get your answer

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

To figure this out, you'll want to get k by itself. You'll do that by adding 26.7 to both sides. -26.7 and adding 26.7 will cancel out and make 0. That results in getting k by itself.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You add both sides by 26.7. Since you add both sides by that number, the left side will only have k left because -26.7+26.7 is equal to zero. Then the right side is 12.8+26.7. You add and get your answer.

Solve for k by isolating it. Notice the -26.7 on the left side of the = sign? You want to move that to the right side. You can do that by doing the opposite, which is adding 26.7 to both sides. The -26.7 and +26.7 will cancel out. |dw:1427213718043:dw|
