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:
f(x) = 4·3^x
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the function will be of the form ...
f(x) = a·b^x
Substituting the given values, we can find 'a' and 'b'.
4/9 = a·b^(-2)
108 = a·b^3
Dividing the second equation by the first gives ...
108/(4/9) = b^(3 -(-2))
243 = b^5
b = 3 . . . . . . 5th root
Using the second equation, we can find 'a':
108 = a·3^3 = 27a
a = 108/27 = 4
The formula for the exponential function is ...
f(x) = 4·3^x
William has $240 to Michael's $420
this can be written in a ratio as 240 : 420
which can then be reduced to
24:42
12:21
4:7
