To solve the equation \( 7 + 2k^2 = 25 \), we first isolate the term with \( k^2 \):

1. Subtract 7 from both sides:

\[
2k^2 = 25 - 7
\]

\[
2k^2 = 18
\]

2. Divide both sides by 2:

\[
k^2 = \frac{18}{2}
\]

\[
k^2 = 9
\]

3. Take the square root of both sides:

\[
k = \pm 3
\]

Thus, the solution set for the value of \( k \) is

\[
\{ -3, 3 \}
\]

Therefore, the correct response is:

\(\{ -3, 3 \}\)
