If a line that passes through the points (-3,2k) and (k,6) has a slope of 4, find the value of k.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Because,
\n" ); document.write( "slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "plug in what was given:
\n" ); document.write( "4 = (6 - 2k)/(k - (-3))
\n" ); document.write( "4 = (6 - 2k)/(k + 3)
\n" ); document.write( "4(k + 3) = (6 - 2k)
\n" ); document.write( "4k + 12 = 6 - 2k
\n" ); document.write( "6k + 12 = 6
\n" ); document.write( "6k = -6
\n" ); document.write( "k = -1\r
