Algebraic math
If 4( j + k) - 5 = 16 + (j + k), then j + k = ?
What i'v got so far is:
4 ( j + k) - 5 = 16 + ( j + k)
4j + 4k - 5 = 16 + ( j + k)
am i doing this right?

there is an option where it cannot be determined an answer choice if it matters

anonymous · Answer

yes you can do it this way.

okay but what do i do/can next?

and thanks

anonymous · Answer

get all the j and k on one side and get the constants on the other side. So you have to add 5 to both sides and subtract j and k from both sides

do you still need help with this?
