-2= k+7/3

Move +7/3 to the other sign. Sign changes from +7/3 to -7/3.

-2-7/3=k+7/3-7/3

-2-7/3=k

find the common denominator for -2 which is 3.

Multiply by 3 for -2/1

(-2)(3)/1(3)

-6/3-7/3

=-13/3 or in mixed fraction - 4 1/3

Answer: k= -13/3 or k=-4 1/3

Answer:

k = -13/3 or ≈ -4.33

Explanation:

-2= k+7/3

We can rewrite it for easy look:

k + 7/3 = -2

Subtract 7/3 from both side, we got:

k + 7/3 - 7/3 = -2 - 7/3

k + 0 = -2 - 7/3

Multiply -2 by 3 so it can subtract with - 7/3

k = -6/3 - 7/3

k = -13/3 or ≈ -4.33
