Q. Which expression is equivalent to 0.9+k0.54k 0.9+k-0.54 k ?\newline0.46k+0.9 0.46 k+0.9 \newline1.36k 1.36 k \newline0.64k -0.64 k \newline1.90.54k 1.9-0.54 k
  1. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms by adding the coefficients of kk. We have kk and 0.54k-0.54k which are like terms. To combine them, we add their coefficients: 11 (the coefficient of kk when it's not written is 11) and 0.54-0.54. Calculation: 1+(0.54)=0.461 + (-0.54) = 0.46
  2. Rewrite Expression: Write the expression with the combined like terms.\newlineNow that we have combined the coefficients of kk, we rewrite the expression with the new coefficient for kk.\newlineExpression: 0.9+0.46k0.9 + 0.46k
  3. Check Answer Choices: Check the answer choices to see which one matches the expression we found.\newlineWe are looking for an expression that matches 0.9+0.46k0.9 + 0.46k.\newlineChecking the answer choices:\newline- 0.46k+0.90.46 k+0.9 is the same as 0.9+0.46k0.9 + 0.46k (since addition is commutative).\newline- 1.36k1.36 k does not match because the coefficient of kk is different.\newline- 0.64k-0.64 k does not match because it does not have the constant term 0.90.9 and the coefficient of kk is incorrect.\newline- 1.90.54k1.9-0.54 k does not match because the constant term is different and the coefficient of kk is not combined correctly.
