Lets train east x and west y:

xs=85 mil/h
ys=-65 mil/h

distance=270 miles

270mi/(20 mi/h)=t

time= 13.5 hr

Use an equation to find the value of k

Delvig [45]

$\boxed{k=4}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

We know that the slope of a line is given by:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ (x_{1},y_{1}) \ and \ (x_{2},y_{2}) \ are \ points \ that \ lie \ on \ the \ line \\ \\ \\ Here: \\ \\ (x_{1},y_{1})=(-2,k) \\ \\ (x_{2},y_{2})=(2,0) \\ \\ m=-1 \\ \\ \\ -1=\frac{0-k}{2-(-2)} \\ \\ -1=\frac{-k}{4} \\ \\ -k=4(-1) \\ \\ \boxed{k=4}$
