Question

How do you solve 4/5(k + 10) = -12 without distributing.

Answer 1

I'm not sure with this. 4/5 (K+10)=-12 4/5k + 40/5=-12 4/5k+8=-12 4/5k=-8-12 4/5k=-20 4/5k divided by -4/5= -20/-4/5 K=5/5 or 1 is it correct? or 4/5(K+10) = -12 4/5k + 40/5= -12 4/5k= 40/5•-12 4/5k=480/5 K= 24

Answer 2

Solve for k by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
k = -25
