Question

How do you solve `-k - 18= - 5- k - 13`?

Answer 1

It seems impossible as the information given simply states that -k -18 = -k -18

Explanation:

I have a couple questions.
1. What level of education have you come across this question? Which year?
2. Is this the original question, or have you simplified an equation to this?

Answer 2

`k in (-oo, oo)`

Explanation:

Simplifying the right hand side, the equation becomes:

`-k-18 = -k-18`

which is true for any value of `k`.

So the solution space is the whole of the Real numbers `RR` (or the whole of `CC` if you are so inclined).
