Answer: 12?
Step-by-step explanation:
If you use the distributive property, you will multiply 4 by 2x to get 8x and 4 by -4 to get -16.
8x-16=8x+k
If you want infinitely many solutions the equations on both sides of the equal sign need to be the same. So, k would need to be -16.
Infinitely many ways!
Suppose you have the fraction 2/d.
<span>Pick </span>any<span> pair of integers a and b where b ≠ 0.</span>
Then 2b-ad is and integer, as is bd so that (2b - ad)/bd is a fraction.
Consider the fractions a/b and (2b - ad)/bd
<span>Their sum is </span>
a/b + (2b-ad)/bd = ad/bd + (2b-ad)/bd = 2b/bd = 2/d - as required.
<span>Since a and b were chosen arbitrarily, there are infinitely many possible answers to the question.</span>
The answer is a repeating decimal of 13.888... round accordingly.
