The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (4, -4) and (k, -1) and the slope m = 34.

Substitute:

\dfrac{-1-(-4)}{k-4}=34\\\\\dfrac{3}{k-4}=\dfrac{34}{1}\qquad|\text{cross multiply}\\\\34(k-4)=3\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\34k-136=3\qquad|+136\\\\34k=139\qquad|:34\\\\k=\dfrac{139}{34}

What are the solutions to the nonlinear system of equations below?
Sonbull [250]
Substitute y=4x to the second equation:

x^2 + (4x)^2 = 17
x^2 + 16x^2 = 17
17x^2 = 17
x^2 = 17/17
x^2 = 1
x = 1 and -1

When x=1, y=4(1) = 4
When x=-1, y=4(-1) = -4

Thus the solutions would be (1,4) and (-1,-4). That would correspond to D. and A.

You row upstream at a speed of 2 mi/h. You travel the same distance
Reika [66]

Answer:

3.5 m/hr  

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + c   =   5 -c           c = speed of current

2 c = 3      c = current speed = 1.5 m/hr

                         your speed =   5 - 1.5    (or  2 + 1.5)  =  3.5 m/hr
