Answer:

k = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference means subtract.

2k - 8 = 12

is how that statement is translated.

Add 8 to both sides.

2k - 8 + 8 = 12 + 8

2k = 20

Divide by 2

2k/2 = 20/2

k = 10

Well for the first one you have to subtract 3 on both sides so that would make the equation x > -8 (because a negative subtracting a positive is basically a negative plus negative) and so your equations done. For the second one you divide both ides by -4 so your equation would be x < 4 (the sign would be less then or qual to because you divided by a negative)
