solve for k.\n4(1.4k + 5.1) = 2.3k - 9.3\nk =

Explanation:

Step1: Expand the left - hand side

$4\times1.4k+4\times5.1 = 2.3k - 9.3$ $5.6k + 20.4=2.3k - 9.3$

Step2: Move terms with k to one side

$5.6k-2.3k=-9.3 - 20.4$

Step3: Combine like terms

$3.3k=-29.7$

Step4: Solve for k

$k=\frac{-29.7}{3.3}$ $k = - 9$

Answer:

$-9$
