What does this problem equal?show your work.<br><br>-12(k+4)=60

HACTEHA [7]

Hey there!

First, divide both sides by 12
-12(k+4)/-12= 60/-12 and you would getk+4=5
Now subtract 4 from both sides

k+4-4= 5-4

k=-9

$\\ \sf\longmapsto XY+YZ=XZ$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 7a+5a=6a+24$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 12a=6a+24$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 12a-6a=24$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 6a=24$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto a=\dfrac{24}{6}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto a=5$

YZ=5a=5(5)=25
