Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

8(4-x)=7x+2

Distribute

32 - 8x = 7x+2

Add 8x to each side

32 - 8x+8x = 7x+8x+2

32 = 15x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

32-2 = 15x +2-2

30 = 15x

Divide by 15

30/15 = 15x/15

2 = x

Answer:

$\large\boxed{k=\dfrac{2m+3}{7-r}\ \text{for}\ r\neq7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$7k+2m=kr+4m+3\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2m\ \text{from both sides}\\\\7k+2m-2m=kr+4m-2m+3\\\\7k=kr+2m+3\qquad\text{subtract}\ kr\ \text{from both sides}\\\\7k-kr=kr-kr+2m+3\\\\7k-kr=2m+3\qquad\text{distribute}\\\\k(7-r)=2m+3\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ (7-r)\neq0\\\\k=\dfrac{2m+3}{7-r}$
