Question
Solve the equation
k=8
Evaluate
8(10−k)=2k
Expand the expression
More Steps

Evaluate
8(10−k)
Apply the distributive property
8×10−8k
Multiply the numbers
80−8k
80−8k=2k
Move the variable to the left side
80−8k−2k=0
Subtract the terms
More Steps

Evaluate
−8k−2k
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(−8−2)k
Subtract the numbers
−10k
80−10k=0
Move the constant to the right side
−10k=0−80
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−10k=−80
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
10k=80
Divide both sides
1010k=1080
Divide the numbers
k=1080
