Question 985609
{{{-3k-18=-5-k-13}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{-3k-18=-k-18}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{-3k=-k-18+18}}} Add {{{18}}} to both sides.



{{{-3k+k=-18+18}}} Add {{{k}}} to both sides.



{{{-2k=-18+18}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-2k=0}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{k=(0)/(-2)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-2}}} to isolate {{{k}}}.



{{{k=0}}} Reduce.
