Answer:

k = -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines will be parallel if their slopes are equal.  To find the slope of each line, write its equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).  In other words, solve each equation for y and look at the coefficient of x.

2x + 3y = 4k

3y = -2x + 4k

y = (-2/3)x + 4k/3

The slope of the first line is -2/3.

x - 2ky = 7

-2ky = -x + 7

y = [1/(2k)]x - 7/(2k)

The slope of the second line is 1/(2k).

If the slopes are equal, then

1/(2k) = -2/3

Multiply by 2k.

1 = (-2/3)(2k) = (-4/3)k

1 = (-4/3)k

k = -3/4

Elodia [21]
Hi, I think the answer should be $4.26

7.25% × $24 = $1.74

$24 +1.74 = $25.74

Change is the difference between the amount tendered and this total amount:

$30.00 -25.74 = $4.26

At 2:00 PM a car's speedometer reads 30 mi/h. At 2:20 PM it reads 50 mi/h. Show that at some time between 2:00 and 2:20 the acce
storchak [24]

Answer:

The correct answer will be "60 min/hour".

Step-by-step explanation:

At time 2:00 PM

A car reads = 30 mi/h

At time 2:20 PM

A car reads = 50 mi/h

Now,

At time 2:00 PM

t = 0

At time 2:20 PM

t = \frac{1}{3}

v(0)=30

v(\frac{1}{3})=50

For MVT,

v'(c)=\frac{v(\frac{1}{3} -v(0))}{(\frac{1}{3} )}

       =\frac{20}{\frac{1}{3} }

       =60 \ min/hour
