You can put this solution on YOUR website! Determine "k" so that the line through (k+2,k) and (3,2) has slope 3.
:
The slope formula: = m
Assign the values as follows:
x1 = (k+2) y = k
x2 = 3; y2 = 2
m = 3
: = 3
: = 3
: = 3
2 - k = 3(1 - k)
:
2 - k = 3 - 3k
:
-k + 3k = 3 - 2
:
2k = 1
:
k = , or .5
:
:
Check the slope = = 3
