Full solution

Q. Solve for kk.\newline8(34k+3)=82k8\left(\frac{3}{4}k + 3\right) = 8 - 2k\newlinek=k = __
  1. Distribute 88: Distribute 88 to the terms inside the parentheses.\newlineCalculation: 8(34k+3)=8×(34k)+8×3=6k+248(\frac{3}{4}k + 3) = 8 \times (\frac{3}{4}k) + 8 \times 3 = 6k + 24
  2. Rewrite equation: Rewrite the equation with all terms involving kk on one side and constants on the other.\newlineCalculation: 6k+24=82k6k + 24 = 8 - 2k\newline6k+2k=8246k + 2k = 8 - 24
  3. Simplify sides: Simplify both sides of the equation.\newlineCalculation: 8k=168k = -16
  4. Solve for k: Solve for k by dividing both sides by 88.\newlineCalculation: k=168=2k = \frac{-16}{8} = -2
