Full solution

Q. Solve for kk.\newline7=7k7 = 7|k|\newlineWrite your answers as integers or as proper or improper fractions in simplest form.\newlinek=k = _____ or k=k = _____
  1. Isolate absolute value: Isolate the absolute value.\newlineTo find the value of k|k|, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Since the equation is 7=7k7 = 7|k|, we can divide both sides by 77 to get k|k| by itself.\newline77=7k7\frac{7}{7} = \frac{7|k|}{7}\newline1=k1 = |k|
  2. Solve for kk: Solve for kk. The absolute value equation k=1|k| = 1 means that kk can be either 11 or 1-1 because the absolute value of both 11 and 1-1 is 11. So, k=1k = 1 or kk00.
