Answer:

k = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2k = k - 7 - 8

Combine like terms

-2k = k - 15

add 15 to both sides

-2k + 15 = k

Add 2k to both sides

15 = 3k

Divide both sides by 3

k=5

Hope this helps!

The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (–4, –3) and (12, 1) is y – 1 = (x – 12). What is the stand

Natalija [7]

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\dfrac{1-(-3)}{12-(-4)}=\dfrac{4}{16}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Correct equation of the line is

$y-1=\dfrac{1}{4}(x-12)$

The standard form is: Ax + By = C.

$y-1=\dfrac{1}{4}(x-12)\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\y-1=\dfrac{1}{4}x-3\qquad|\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\4y-4=x-12\qquad|\text{add 12 to both sides}\\\\4y+8=x\qquad|\text{subtract 4y from both sides}\\\\8=x-4y$

<h3>Answer: x - 4y = 8</h3>
