Question: 182

3. In the equation 4j -k + 2k -13j = 0, what is the value of j if k = 9?

  • A. –2
  • B. 1
  • C. 4
  • D. 9

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

The answer is B

Input the value given for k: 4j - 9 + 18 - 13j = 0. Combine the -9 and 18 as well as the 4j and -13j: 9 - 9j = 0. Add 9j to both sides: 9 = 9j. Divide both sides by 9: j = 1.
