find k such that the line kx+y=3,is parallel to the line 5x-2y=1

k=-5/2

how did u solve it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so for standard for the slope is -A/B, a being the term w/ x and B being the term with y so -(5)/-2 so 5/2. Then slope for the other line should be the same so to make it the same -A/B, slope, should be 5/2and we accomplish that by making k= -5/2

can u pls work out the solving let me see?
