Answer:
k = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - 3x + 5 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 3
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus the 2 points have a slope of - 3
calculate the slope using the slope formula and equate to - 3
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (k, 5)
m = =
= - 3 ( multiply both sides by (k - 4) )
- 3(k - 4) = 6 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
k - 4 = - 2 ( add 4 to both sides )
k = 2
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Let negative means the turtle position when descending and positive for going up. Therefore since the turtle was 850 meters below see level, it was at -850. It then moves 165 meters up, hence its new position is -685 meters (-850 + 165). Lastly it moves down 165 meters, hence its new position is -850 meters (-685 - 165)
b) The change in position is the sum of the movements = +165 - 165 = 0 meters.
