What is the solution to the linear equation? 6 k plus 10 point 5 is equal to 3 k plus 12
Answer
A
k is equal to 9
B
k is equal to 0 point 5
C
k is equal to 2
D
k is equal to 7 point 3
Explanation
Subtract 3k from both sides: 3k + 10.5 = 12. Then subtract 10.5 from both sides to get 3k = 1.5, and divide by 3: k = 0.5. The correct choice is k is equal to 0 point 5.
