Answer:

k = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x  - sqrt(k) )^2              Expand this as a binomial                          

4x^2 - 4x*sqrt(k) + k      The middle term must be -20x Solve for k so it is

-4xsqrt(k) = - 20x            Divide by -4x

sqrt(k) = -20x/-4x             Do the division

sqrt(k) = 5                         Square both sides

k = 25

Given the point (-3, 6) and a line y=2x-8, write an equation of a line through the point and parallel to the line.
ch4aika [34]

Answer: y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

The equation of the given line is

y = 2x - 8

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = 2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 3,-6) is 2

To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = 2, x = - 3 and

y = - 6 into y = mx + c. It becomes

- 6 = 2 × - 3 + c

- 6 = - 6 + c

c = - 6 + 6 = 0

The equation becomes

y = 2x
