To simplify the expression \( 9(k + 13) + 10(12k - 1) \), we'll use the distributive property.

  1. Distribute the \( 9 \) in \( 9(k + 13) \): \[ 9k + 117 \]

  2. Distribute the \( 10 \) in \( 10(12k - 1) \): \[ 120k - 10 \]

  3. Now, combine the two results: \[ (9k + 117) + (120k - 10) \]

  4. Combine like terms:

    • Combine \( 9k \) and \( 120k \): \[ 9k + 120k = 129k \]
    • Combine \( 117 \) and \( -10 \): \[ 117 - 10 = 107 \]
  5. Thus, the final simplified expression is: \[ 129k + 107 \]

Now let's see how this matches the options presented:

  • 14k + 13
  • 14k − 7
  • 1912k − 23
  • 14k − 23

None of the provided response options match the correct simplification of \( 129k + 107 \). It appears there may have been an error in the answer choices provided. The correct simplified expression is \( 129k + 107 \).
