Question

2.25k - 20 = 6.5k + 14 please help me solve this step by step asap!

Answer 1

Answer:

k= -8

Explaining:


Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign.

2.25k - 6.5k - 20= 6.5k - 6.5k + 14


Since two opposites add up to zero, remove them from the expression.

2.25k - 6.5k - 20= 14

Collect like terms!

-4.25k = 14 + 20

Add the numbers

-4.25k = 35


Divide both sides of the equation by -4.25

So you will get the answer: k= -8
