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

<span>The easiest thing to do is convert all the measurements to yards...
 18ft = 6 yards
 6 inch = 1/6 yard     ( 6 inches = 1/2 ft.... so 1/6 yard)
  so the volume is V = 6 x 6 x 1/6
 Then all you do is calculate the cost. I hope this helps you out</span>
