To simplify the expression \(9(k + \frac{1}{3}) + 10(\frac{1}{2}k - 1)\), we will first distribute the numbers outside the parentheses.
-
Distribute \(9\) to \((k + \frac{1}{3})\): \[ 9(k) + 9\left(\frac{1}{3}\right) = 9k + 3 \]
-
Distribute \(10\) to \((\frac{1}{2}k - 1)\): \[ 10\left(\frac{1}{2}k\right) - 10(1) = 5k - 10 \]
Now combine the results: \[ (9k + 3) + (5k - 10) \]
- Combine like terms: \[ 9k + 5k + 3 - 10 = 14k - 7 \]
Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{14k - 7} \]
