Find the value of k

Mathematics

The slope of the line given is 1 because that is the coefficient in front of x. A slope is found by dividing the change in y by the change in x. Knowing this, we can set up an equation with the points given.

1 = (-2 - k)/(-7 +1)

Now we'll solve to find k.
Firstly we'll multiple both sides by (-7 + 1):

1(-7 + 1) = (-2 - k)/(-7 +1)(-7 + 1)
-7 = -2 - k

Now we'll add 2 to both sides:
-7 + 2 = -2 - k + 2
-5 = -k

Now to get k by itself we must divide by negative one on both sides: 
-5/(-1) = -k/(-1)
5 = k

Your answer is 5 = k

A jar contains n nickels and d dimes. There is a total of 236 coins in the jar. The value of the coins is $15.75. How many nicke
just olya [345]

The total if all 236 coins were nickels would be $11.80, which is $3.95 short of the actual amount.

Replacing a nickel with a dime adds $0.05 to the total value, so there must have been $3.95/$0.05 = 79 such replacements.

There are 79 dimes.

There are 236 -79 = 157 nickels.

_____

Using the given variables, the problem statement gives rise to two equations. One is the based on the number of coins. The other is based on their value.

  • n + d = 236
  • .05n +.10d = 15.75

Solving the first for n, we get

... n = 236 - d

Substituting that into the second equation, we have

... .05(236 -d) +.10d = 15.75

... .05d = 15.75 -236·.05 . . . . . collect terms, subtract .05·236

... d = 3.95/.05 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by .05

... d = 79

... n = 236-79 = 157

___

The solution should look familiar, as it matches the verbal description at the beginning.
