I’m honestly confused on how to solve for k. please help.

stellarik [79]

Answer:

k=9

Step-by-step explanation:

$slope = \frac{y2 - y1 }{x2 - x1} \\ \frac{ - 5}{2} = \frac{ - 11 - k}{6 - ( - 2)} \\ - ( \frac{5}{2} ) = - ( \frac{11 + k}{8} ) \\ \frac{5}{2} = \frac{11 + k}{8} \\ 5 \times 8 = 2(11 + k) \\ 40 = 22 + 2k \\ k = \frac{40 - 22}{2} \\ k = 9$

11.05 inches.

5.2 divided by 8 is 0.65 inches every minute.

Now since there is 17 mins, simply do 0.65 inches per min x 17 mins.

11.05 inches.
