Question

Kent multiplies both sides of the equation below by an expression. k + StartFraction 12 Over k EndFraction = 8 Then he moves all the terms to one side of the equal sign in the resulting equation. Which equation must he solve now? k squared minus 8 k minus 12 = 0 k squared + 8 k + 12 = 0 k squared minus 8 + 12 = 0 k squared minus 8 k + 12 = 0

Answer 1

Answer:

k^2-8k+12=0D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

k^2-8k+12=0D

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

1) Given equation:

         k+12/k=8

2) Multiplication property of equality:

        k(k+12/k)=8k

3) Distributive property:

        k^2+12k/k=8k

4) Simplification:

        k^2+12=8k

5) Subtraction property of equality:

        k^2-8k+12=0
