Use an equation to find the value of k

Mathematics
1 answer:
JulijaS [17]2 years ago

Answer:  k=143

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the standard form of a linear equation:  y = mx + b, where m ios the slope and b is trhe y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).  We know the slope, so:

y = -15x + b

We can find the y-intercept, b, by using the one given point (6,-7) in the equation and solve for b:

y = -15x + b

-7 = -15(6) + b

-7 = -90+b

b = 83

The equation is y = -15x + 83

Use the x value of (-4,k) to find y, which will be k.

y = -15x + 83

y = -15(-4) + 83

y = 60 + 93

y = 143

k is 143

How many solutions does an equation have when you isolate the variable and it equals a constant?
OLEGan [10]

1 solution is available when variable equals a constant.

Answer: Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

You will be able to determine if an equation has one solution (which is when one variable equals one number), or if it has no solution (the two sides of the equation are not equal to each other) or infinite solutions (the two sides of the equation are identical).

The ordered pair that is the solution of both equations is the solution of the system. A system of two linear equations can have one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solution. If a consistent system has exactly one solution, it is independent.
