Answer:

k = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Substitute the point (2,-1) into the given equation 5x+ky=12. The first number is 2, the x-value. The second number is -1, the y-value.

5x + ky = 12

5(2) + k(-1) = 12

2. Simplify

5(2) + k(-1) = 12

10 + (-k) = 12

10 - k = 12

2. Isolate k

10 - k = 12

-k = 12-10

-k = 2   <= here multiply both sides by (-1)

k = -2

Answer:

<span>x=<span><span>5±<span>√41</span></span>4</span></span>

Explanation:

<span>2<span>x2</span>−5x+1=3</span>

<span><span>aaaaaaa</span>−3a−3<span>aaa</span></span>Subtract 3 from both sides

<span>2<span>x2</span>−5x−2=0</span>

<span>x=<span><span>−<span>(−5)</span>±<span>√<span><span><span>(−5)</span>2</span>−4<span>(2)</span><span>(−2)</span></span></span></span><span>2⋅2</span></span></span>

<span>x=<span><span><span>5±<span>√41</span></span>4</span></span></span>

hope this helped :)
