Answer:

Solve for k by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

Exact Form: k = 3/2

Decimal Form: k = 1.5

Mixed Number Form: k = 1  1/2

Hope this helps!

Answer:

k = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{k}{3}[/tex] + 4 - 5k = - 2k

Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction

k + 12 - 15k = - 6k

- 14k + 12 = - 6k ( add 14k to both sides )

12 = 8k ( divide both sides by 8 )

k = [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
