{{{-5k-19=5-13k}}} Start with the given equation




{{{-5k=5-13k+19}}}Add 19 to both sides



{{{-5k+13k=5+19}}} Add 13k to both sides



{{{8k=5+19}}} Combine like terms on the left side



{{{8k=24}}} Combine like terms on the right side



{{{k=(24)/(8)}}} Divide both sides by 8 to isolate k




{{{k=3}}} Divide
