Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A(2,1)

2x-y+k=0    k=?

2*2-1+k=0

4-1+k=0

3+k=0

k=-3

  • B(5,-8)

2x-y+k=0

2*5-(-8)+k=0

10+8+k=0

18+k=0

k=-18

Answer:

  k = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of P is ...

  P = (2A+B)/3 = (2·2+5, 2·1-8)/3 = (3, -2)

Putting this point into the equation for the line, we have ...

  2(3) -(-2) +k = 0

  8 +k = 0

  k = -8

Which expression is equivalent to 3m+1-m?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

option  (a) is correct.

2 + m - 1 + m is an equivalent expression  to the given expression  3m+1-m

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given expression  3m+1-m

We have to choose an equivalent expression from given options.

Equivalent expression are those expression that looks different but are same.

Like 4+2 = 6  and 3+ 3 = 6

Both have same value but looks differently.

Like terms are term having same variable with same degree.

Consider the given expression  3m+1-m

Simplify by adding like terms,

3m + 1 - m = (3-1) m + 1

Thus, (3-1) m + 1  = 2m + 1

Also 2m + 1 can be written as m + m + 2 - 1

Thus, option  (a) is correct.
