Hi there!
Your question:
8.5 + 49(1-2.5k)=24.5
My answer:
8.5 + 4(1-2.5k) = 24.5 >>>>>>> first, you have to distribute
8.5 + 4 - 10k = 24.5 >>>>>>>> now, we are going to combine like terms.
12.5 - 10k = 24.5 >>>>>> now, we are going to subtract 12.5 on both sides
-10k = 12 >>>>>>>>> finally, divide -10 on both sides
k = -1.2
Hope this helps you!
