<h3>The answer to your question is k (-3) = 21!</h3>
Here's how I got this answer:
<em><u>K(a) = 2a^2 - a </u></em>
<em><u>K(a) = 2a^2 - a K(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - (-3)</u></em>
<em><u>K(a) = 2a^2 - a K(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - (-3)K(-3) = 2(9) + 3</u></em>
<em><u>K(a) = 2a^2 - a K(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - (-3)K(-3) = 2(9) + 3K (-3) = 18 + 3</u></em>
<em><u>K(a) = 2a^2 - a K(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - (-3)K(-3) = 2(9) + 3K (-3) = 18 + 3K (-3) = 21</u></em>
I hope this helps!
Also sorry for the late answer, I just got the notification that you replied to my comment, I hope I came in time!
