Hi!


\tt{9+k+5=21}

Step 1: Combine like terms.


\tt{9+5+k=21}


\tt{14+k=21}

Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.


\tt{k=7}
\checkmark

Have a great day!

Hope that helps. :)

Answer:

k= 7

Explanation:

First let's add like terms: a+b+a=c: a²+b=c

k+9+5=21

k+14=21

Subtract 14 from both sides of the equation

k+14-14=21-14

K=7
