Question

Solve 5x + 14 = k for x. A. B. x = k – 14 C. x = 5k – 14 D.

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the equation for x is $x=\frac{k-14}{5}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

$5x+14=k$

We need to solve the equation for x.

Subtract 14 from both the sides.

$5x+14-14=k-14$

$5x=k-14$

Divide both side by 5.

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{k-14}{5}$

$x=\frac{k-14}{5}$

Hence, the value of the equation for x is $x=\frac{k-14}{5}$.

Answer 2

4x + 14 = k

Do the opposite of PEMDAS
Isolate the x, subtract 14 from both sides
4x + 14 (-14) = k (-14)

4x = k - 14
divide 4 from both sides
4x/4 = (k-14)/4

x = (k-14)/4 is your answer

hope this helps
