K=8k+28
subtract 8k from both side
-7k = 28
divide both side by -7
k= -4
8 ÷ 544 = 0.0147058824, 544 ÷ 8 = 68
Remark
One of the things you need to do is learn to read phrase by phrase.
What is the quotient of a number and 7? That meas you have a number, x, and it is divided by 7. What you do that the answer you get is the quotient.
x/7 is what you know so for. Now the first part says you take 12 away from that.
x/7 - 12 is what you have after doing that.
The result you get is - 2
x/7 - 12 = - 2 Add 12 to both sides
x/7 - 12 + 12 = - 2 + 12
x/7 = 10 Now multiply by 7
x = 10 *7
x = 70 <<< Answer the number is 70
Y = ax + b;
0.89 = a * 2 + b and 2.09 = a * 5 + b =>
=> 2.09 - 0.89 = a * 5 + a * 2 + b - b => 1.20 = 3 * a => a = 1.20 / 3 => a = 0.40;
b = 0.89 - 0.40 * 2 => b = 0.89 - 0.80 => b = 0.09;
y = 0.40x + 0.09 => 0.40x - y + 0.09 = 0 is the linear equation.
