Question

find the value of k so that the line has slope m:

6x+ky = 10 and m=-2
k=-8
k=4
k=3
k=-3

Answer 1

ky = -6x + 10 -> y = (-6/k)x + 10/k

So, -6/k = -2 -> k = 3

Answer 2

thanks! what about (k+1)x+2y=6 and m=-(1/3)

Answer 3

2y = -(k + 1)x + 6 -> y = -[(k + 1)/2]x + 3

-[(k + 1)/2] = -(1/3) -> [(k + 1)/2] = (1/3)

k + 1 = 2/3 -> k = -1/3

Answer 4

thank you!
