How do you solve #-9k+3=4#?

Answer 1

Isaiah Anthony

#color(magenta)"k = -0.11111"#

#color(pink)("Subtract 3 on both sides:")#

#-9k+cancel3= 4# #color(white)(aaa)-cancel3# #color(white)(a) -3#

On the left, 3 cancels out, and on the right, subtracting 3 from 4 yields 1:

#-9k = 1#

#color(blue)("Divide both sides by -9 to get k by itself.")#

#(cancel"-9"k)/cancel"-9"=(1)/-9#

Now you are just left with #k# on the left side and -0.11111 on the right side.

Thus, #color(magenta)"k = -0.11111"#

To solve the equation -9k + 3 = 4, follow these steps:

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation: -9k = 1
Divide both sides by -9: k = -1/9

Therefore, the solution to the equation is k = -1/9.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
