Question

6. Solve the given equation : 5 + 4 ( k – 1) = 25 .

Answer 1

Answer:

k=6

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 5 from both sides

4(k-1)=20

divide 4 on from both sides

k-1=5

add 1 on both sides

k=6

Answer 2

$\huge\bf{ANSWER:}$

$\huge\mathrm{k=6}\checkmark$

$\huge\bf{SOLUTION:}$

Hey there, hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Let's solve this math problem. First of all, let's use the Distributive Property:

$\rm{5+4(k-1)=25$

$\rm{5+4k-4=25$

Now, move all the constants (numbers without a variable next to them) to the right, using the opposite operation:

$\rm{4k=25-5+4$

$\rm{4k=20+4$

Add:

$\rm{4k=24$

Divide both sides by 4 in order to isolate k:

$\rm{k=6}$ (Answer)

Hope you find it helpful.
