Answer:
k = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
-2k = k - 7 - 8
Combine like terms
-2k = k - 15
add 15 to both sides
-2k + 15 = k
Add 2k to both sides
15 = 3k
Divide both sides by 3
k=5

Because infedecimals. Basically 1 -.99999.... Is a number so close to zero it is impossible to define. If this were infanct the case however and a number existed that was not 0 and not 0 it would wreck mathematics so infedecimals exist only theoretically. So .999... Is equal to 1 practically but not theoretically.
