Q. Solve for k k .\newlineGive an exact answer.\newline2.5(4k+2)=12k 2.5(4 k+2)=12 k \newlinek= k=
  1. Simplify using distributive property: Simplify the left side of the equation using the distributive property.\newline2.5(4k+2)=2.5×4k+2.5×22.5(4k+2) = 2.5 \times 4k + 2.5 \times 2\newline=10k+5= 10k + 5
  2. Isolate variable k: Now we have the simplified equation:\newline10k+5=12k10k + 5 = 12k\newlineSubtract 10k10k from both sides to isolate the variable kk on one side.\newline10k+510k=12k10k10k + 5 - 10k = 12k - 10k\newline5=2k5 = 2k
  3. Divide both sides to solve for k: Divide both sides by 22 to solve for k.\newline\frac{55}{22} = \frac{22k}{22}\newline22.55 = k
