To simplify the expression \( 9(k + 13) + 10(12k - 1) \) using the properties of operations, follow these steps:

  1. Distribute \( 9 \) and \( 10 \) to the terms inside the parentheses: \[ 9(k + 13) = 9k + 117 \] \[ 10(12k - 1) = 120k - 10 \]

  2. Combine the results: \[ 9k + 117 + 120k - 10 \]

  3. Combine like terms \( 9k + 120k \) and \( 117 - 10 \): \[ (9k + 120k) + (117 - 10) = 129k + 107 \]

Thus, the simplified expression is \( 129k + 107 \), which does not match any of the provided options. It seems there may have been an expectation for a specific form, or there may be a typographical error in the options provided.

If the options somehow do not represent the correct simplification, the process of simplification is as above.
