Answer:


x=-(2)/(k)

Explanation:

We have been given an equation
kx+9=7. We are asked to solve our given equation

First of all, we will subtract 9 from both sides of our equation.


kx+9-9=7-9


kx=-2

Now we will divide both sides of our equation by k.


(kx)/(k)=(-2)/(k)


x=-(2)/(k)

Therefore, the value of x is
-(2)/(k).
