3k + 3 = 8 3k = 8 -3 3k = 5 k = 5/3
Well, honey, if you want to solve for k, just isolate the variable by subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation. That leaves you with 2k equals 8. Then, divide both sides by 2 to find that k equals 4. Math doesn't have to be a headache, darling.
Suppose P = (x, y) are the coordinates of any point on the line. Then the segment of the line joining P to the point (3, 2k) has slope k That is, (y - 2k) / (x - 3) = k Simplifying, y - 2k = kx - 3k or y = kx - k equivalently, y = k(x - 1)
2k = 5k-30 Subtract 5k from both sides: -3k = -30 Divide both sides by -3 to find the value of k remembering that a minus divided into a minus becomes a plus: k = 10
-47 + 6k = 3k - 2Add 47 to each side:6k = 3k +45Subtract 3k from each side:3k = 45Divide each side by 3:k = 15
