To calculate $k(1.74, 1.09)$, substitute $x = 1.74$ and $y = 1.09$ into the given function: $$k(1.74, 1.09) = \frac{\pi^{1.74 + 1.09}}{1.74 + 1.09} = \frac{\pi^{2.83}}{2.83}.$$ Using a calculator to evaluate this expression with $\pi \approx 3.14159$, we find that the value is approximately 9.02, which corresponds to option D.

If k(x,y)=πx+yx+y, calculate the value of k(1.74,1.09)\text { If } k ( x , y ) = \frac { \pi ^ { x + y } } { x + y } , \quad \text { calculate the value of } k ( 1.74,1.09 ) If k(x,y)=x+yπx+y​, calculate the value of k(1.74,1.09)

$\text { If } k ( x , y ) = \frac { \pi ^ { x + y } } { x + y } , \quad \text { calculate the value of } k ( 1.74,1.09 )$
