Answer:

9/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

(3 • (2 - x) - 1) - (5x - 4) = 0

Step 2 :

9 - 8x = 0

Step 3 :

3.1 Solve : -8x+9 = 0

Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation :

-8x = -9

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 8x = 9

Divide both sides of the equation by 8:

x = 9/8 = 1.125

One solution was found :

x = 9/8 = 1.125

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

k = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Fill in the given point values and solve for k.

y = (1/2)x + k

1 = (1/2)(-2) +k . . . . . . for x = -2, y = 1

1 = -1 +k . . . . simplify; next, add 1

2 = k
