Question 634936
{{{-316=8(7k-2)+4k}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{-316=56k-16+4k}}} Distribute.



{{{-316=60k-16}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{0=60k-16+316}}} Add {{{316}}} to both sides.



{{{-60k=-16+316}}} Subtract {{{60k}}} from both sides.



{{{-60k=300}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{k=(300)/(-60)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-60}}} to isolate {{{k}}}.



{{{k=-5}}} Reduce.
