Show steps

Answer 1

12(2k+11)=12(2k + 12)

12 x 2k + 12 x 11 = 12 x 2k + 12 x 12

24k + 132 = 24k + 144
+24k = -24k

K +132= 144
-132= -132

K=8

Answer 2

12(2k + 11) = 12(2k + 12)

(12)(2k)(12)(11)=(12)(2k)(12)(12)

24k+132=24k+144

Move 24k to the left side. Sign changes from +24k to -24k.

24k-24k+132=24-24k+144

132=144
