Answer:

k = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, - k - 5k = - 5k - 4

So, - k - 5k = - 5k - 4

= - ( 1 + 5 )k = - 5k - 4

= - 6k = - 5k - 4

Add 5k in both the sides.

= - 6k + 5k = - 5k + 5k - 4

= - k = - 4

Multiply - 1 on both the sides.

= - k * ( - 1 ) = - 4 * ( - 1 )

= k = 4

Hence, k = 4
