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

20. If a certain linear function f(x) is evaluated at 0, the answer is 4.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points on this line are (0, 4) and (3, 5).

As we move from the first point to the second, x increases by 3 and y increases by 1.  Thus, the slope, m, of the line is m = rise / run = 1/3.

Use the slope-intercept equation:  y = mx + b.

If we use the data from the point (0, 4), we get:

4 = (1/3)(0) + b, so that b = 4.  The desired equation is y = (1/3)x + 4.
