1/2k + 6 or 0.5k + 6
k - 6
Yes, 14 K has more gold that 10 K
"Than" changes the order of the sentence and "of" implies paratheses. (17-k)+9
J = K+6 K + J = 4K Replace J in the second equation K + (K + 6) = 4K K + K + 6 = 4K 2K + 6 = 4K Subtract 2K from each side 6 = 2K divide both sides by 2 3 = K So, Keisha is 3 and therefore John is 9
( 6k - 14 )
