H\left(k-1\right)=2\left(k+3\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by k+3.
Hk-H=2\left(k+3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply H by k-1.
Hk-H=2k+6
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by k+3.
\left(k-1\right)H=2k+6
Combine all terms containing H.
\frac{\left(k-1\right)H}{k-1}=\frac{2k+6}{k-1}
Divide both sides by k-1.
H=\frac{2k+6}{k-1}
Dividing by k-1 undoes the multiplication by k-1.
H=\frac{2\left(k+3\right)}{k-1}
Divide 6+2k by k-1.
H\left(k-1\right)=2\left(k+3\right)
Variable k cannot be equal to -3 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by k+3.
Hk-H=2\left(k+3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply H by k-1.
Hk-H=2k+6
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by k+3.
Hk-H-2k=6
Subtract 2k from both sides.
Hk-2k=6+H
Add H to both sides.
\left(H-2\right)k=6+H
Combine all terms containing k.
\left(H-2\right)k=H+6
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(H-2\right)k}{H-2}=\frac{H+6}{H-2}
Divide both sides by H-2.
k=\frac{H+6}{H-2}
Dividing by H-2 undoes the multiplication by H-2.
k=\frac{H+6}{H-2}\text{, }k\neq -3
Variable k cannot be equal to -3.
