Answer:

The value of the equation is -1

Explanation:

1st plug in 3 in the equation for k

3 + (2(3)-10)

now we can use PEMDAS

3 + (6 - 10)

we multiplied 2 and 3 to get 6

keep going

3 + -4

now that you have this, we can solve with intervals

btw A positive - negative becomes a negative symbol -

so your equation looks like this now

3 - 4

now we can subtract and our final answer should be

-1
