Question

if 6x=42 and xk=2 what is the value of k

Answer 1

Answer:

k=2/7

Explanation:

Given that 6x=42, we have:

$\begin{gathered} 6x=42 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 6} \\ \frac{6x}{6}=\frac{42}{6} \\ x=7 \end{gathered}$

Since x=7, we substitute into xk=2.

$\begin{gathered} xk=2 \\ 7\times k=2 \\ k=\frac{2}{7} \end{gathered}$

The value of k is 2/7.
