Answer 1

Answer:

x = $14\frac{7}{9}$  or   14.78

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines are parallel, therefore, k(18) acts same as g(x)

That means that:

k(18) = g(x)

- 14 = $-\frac{18}{7}x$ + 24

- 14 - 24 =  $-\frac{18}{7}x$

- 38 = $-\frac{18}{7}x$

38(7) = 18x

266 = 18x

266 / 18 = x

133 / 9 = x

x = $14\frac{7}{9}$  or   14.78
