Question

If x=2 is the solution of kx+8=26-x, then the value of k is​

Answer 1

put the values of x first
2k+8=26-2
2k+8=24
2k=24-8
2k=14
k=14/2
k=7

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

kx+8=26-x

given that x=2 is the solution,then substitute value of x in given equation

k(2)+8-26+2=0

2k-16=0

2k=16

k=8
