(3/k)+4-(4/k)-10 *k

…If they are over the same number multiply by it

1+4k-4-10k


3+4k-4-10k

…looks much easier

-6k-3


-6k-1

…you’re on your own from there. I would probably just circle that and call it the answer.[/quote]

Hmm. Did you copy the expression correctly? I’m seeing
(-5/k) where you have (-4/k) in the numerator, and (2/k) where you have (-4/k) in the denominator (and +3 instead of +4).

Anyways, I end up with (-6k-4)/(-7k+5).

Or, after factoring and canceling out a
-1, (6k+4)/(7k-5)

And, 5/7 is not in the domain.

Not sure if that all that’s being looked for, but there it is. And if I messed up, I’m sure someone will let me know.

well here goes:

TUESDAY-297=9?

Hope this helps
