Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
1712k2
1712k2−13=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
1712k2=0+13
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
1712k2=13
Divide both sides
17121712k2=171213
Divide the numbers
k2=171213
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
k=±171213
