Did you ever get the answer?
-k-(-8k+7)
Distribute the negative sign
-k+8k-7
Combine like terms
7k-7
Nothing further can be done with this equation so the answer is: 7k-7
To find out the answer, you first need to know how many apples you have. So since you put 4 apples in 4 drawers, we just multiply 4×4 to get our answer so, 4×4= 16, So you have 16 apples. To find out how many you gave your friend, you just subtract 24 - 16 = 8, So your friend got 8 apples.
