Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                -4*k+2*(5*k-6)-(-3*k-39)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (-4k +  2 • (5k - 6)) -  (-3k - 39)  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   9k + 27  =   9 • (k + 3) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  9 • (k + 3)  = 0 

Step  4  :

Equations which are never true :

 4.1      Solve :    9   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.2      Solve  :    k+3 = 0 

 Subtract  3  from both sides of the equation : 
                      k = -3
