6 1/3 + k + 3 5/6 + 5 1/2 = 26 1/6
Add your fractions
6 1/3 + 3 5/6 + 5 1/2 = 15 2/3
now You need to isolate k on one side of the equation by using the subtraction method of equality.
k + 15 2/3 = 26 1/6
k = 10 1/2
Hope this helps

The answer is 7, 2(7x5) + 2(4x7) + 2(5x4) = 166
<span>Let x = represent the number of weeks of deposits
A = 120 + 5x the account balance after x weeks
The account balance is directly proportional to the number of weeks of deposits if:
A/x = constant
(120 + 5x)/x = 120/x + 5 is not a constant
For example:
After 1 week there will be: 120 + 1*5 = $125 on the account
After 2 week there will be: 120 + 2*5 = $130 on the account
After 3 week there will be: 120 + 3*5 = $135 on the account
But 125/1 <> 130/2 <> 135/3
The account balance is not proportional to the number of weeks of deposits.</span>
This means that we will plug 3 into our x values.
Our rule is 5x.
This means that:
5(3)
This means our final answer will be 15.
