k = 12
cancel out the r on both sides
then divide -144 by -12.
you get 12.
Answer:
11/9 or 1 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 multiples by 3 in both the numerator and denominator is equal to 6/9. 6/9 plus 5/9 is 11/9. you want to make sure the denominator is the same before adding or subtracting
Answer: -7 = e
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this equation for <em>e</em>, we need to get <em>e</em> by itself on the right side of the equation. Since <em>e</em> is multiplied by 16, in order to get <em>e</em> by itself, we need to divide by 16 on the right side of the equation. If we divide by 16 on the right side of the equation, we must also divide by 16 on the left side of the equation.
On the right side of the equation the 16's cancel and we have <em>e</em>. On the right side of the equation -112 divided by 16 is -7. Remember that a negative divided by a positive is a negative.
So we have -7 = e which is the solution to our equation.
To check our solution, we can plug -7 in for <em>e</em> in the original equation. So we have -112 = 16 (-7) or -112 = -112 which is a true statement so our answer checks.
