Q. Solve the equation for the variable.\newlineWhat should you do to the circled number to move it to the other side of the equation?\newline8k=60 8-k=-60 \newlineA. add 6k 6 \mathrm{k} \newlineB. multiply by 6k 6 \mathrm{k} \newlineC. subtract 5k -5 \mathrm{k} \newlineD. none of the above
  1. Identify circled number: First, let's identify the circled number, which is not given here, but assuming it's the k-k since that's what we need to move, we'll proceed with that.
  2. Isolate kk: To isolate kk, we need to get rid of the 1-1 that is multiplied by kk (since k-k is the same as 1-1*kk). To do this, we should add kk to both sides of the equation.
  3. Add kk to both sides: So, we add kk to both sides: 8k+k=60+k8-k+k=-60+k, which simplifies to 8=60+k8=-60+k.
  4. Move 88 to other side: Now, to solve for kk, we need to move the 88 to the other side by subtracting 88 from both sides: 88=60+k88-8=-60+k-8, which simplifies to 0=60+k80=-60+k-8.
  5. Solve for k: After simplifying, we get: k=608k=-60-8, which means k=68k=-68.
