well, just plug in 15 for k and see whether the equation is true!

3*15 - 11 = 45-11 = 34 so not that one
now test the others

To solve the equation 3k - 11 = -34, we need to isolate the variable k, which means getting k by itself on one side of the equation.

First, let's remove the constant term on the left side of the equation. We can do this by adding 11 to both sides of the equation:

3k - 11 + 11 = -34 + 11

Simplifying the equation gives:

3k = -23

Next, we want to isolate k, so we need to get rid of the coefficient 3 in front of k. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 3:

(3k)/3 = (-23)/3

Simplifying further:

k = -23/3

Therefore, the solution to the equation 3k - 11 = -34 is k = -23/3.
