so what is k
By following the chosen steps in order, we can find the value of k:
1. Add 2k to both sides:
4k - 6 + 2k = -2k - 16 - 2
6k - 6 = -2k - 18
2. Add 6 to both sides:
6k - 6 + 6 = -2k - 18 + 6
6k = -2k - 12
3. Add 2k to both sides:
6k + 2k = -12
8k = -12
4. Divide by 8:
k = -12/8
k = -1.5
Therefore, the solution for k is k = -1.5.
1. Add 2k to both sides:
4k - 6 + 2k = -2k - 16 - 2
6k - 6 = -2k - 18
2. Add 6 to both sides:
6k - 6 + 6 = -2k - 18 + 6
6k = -2k - 12
3. Add 2k to both sides:
6k + 2k = -12
8k = -12
4. Divide by 8:
k = -12/8
k = -1.5
Therefore, the solution for k is k = -1.5.
