Jaylin · Answer 1

A) 2k+4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for terms of x, we need to. she sure that x is on its own side while every other term is on the other side.

To start, we will cross multiply. If we have a/b=c/d, then ad=bc

We can perform the same calculation here,

6/x=3 / (k+2)

6 (k+2) = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

2 (k+2) = x

x=2k+4
