The steps below are presented in order to arrive to the value of k of the given equation.
First, multiply both sides of the equation by the variable k since the left-hand side of the equation has it in the denominator. This will be,
(k + 12/ k)(k) = 8(k)

Then, we simplify,
k + 12 = 8k
We then, subtract 8k to both sides of the equation,
k - 8k + 12 = 8k - 8k

Simplifying,
-7k + 12 = 0

Then, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation and divide both sides by -7. This will us the final answer of,
k = 12/7

consider the line y=2/3x-0 find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point(8, 4).

Mila [183]

To find the equation take the slope 2/3 y-y(1)=m(x-x(1) y-4=2/3(x-8) = 2/3x-16/3 Next solve for y y=2/3x-16/3 +4(turn 4 into a fraction with a common denominator) y=2/3x-16/3 + 12/3 y=2/3x-4/3

What is the average rate of change of f(x) = -x2 + 3x + 6 over the interval –3

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

$\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} =\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{6-(-12)}{3-(-3)} =\frac{18}{6}= 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average rate of change of a function over a given interval, basically you need to find the slope. The mathematical definition of the slope is very similar to the one we use every day. In mathematics, the slope is the relationship between the vertical and horizontal changes between two points on a surface or a line. In this sense, the slope can be found using the following expression:

$Average\hspace{3}rate\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}change=Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}$
