Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + 10 - 6k = 6(4 - k)

Distribute

8 + 10 - 6k = 24 -6k

Combine like terms

18 -6k = 24 -6k

Add 6k  to each side

18 - 6k +6k = 24 - 6k+6k

18 = 24

This is never true so there are no solutions

Hey there! I'm happy to help you out!

To solve for k, we have to isolate it on one side of the equation and put all the constants on the other side.

The first thing we need to do is get the k on the right side out of parentheses. To do this, we will use the distributive property!

8+10-6k=24-6k

Now, we will combine like terms.

18-6k=24-6k

We want to get all the ks on the left side and all the constants on the right. Let's add six k to both sides to cancel out the -6k on the right.

18=24

As you can see, our variables canceled out. This is because our equation was saying 18 minus six of something was equal to 24 minus six of something, which makes no sense because that doesn't work!

We are left with 18=24, which isn't even a true equation! Therefore, there is no solution to this equation.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!
