Question

The function y = 2x + 2 and
y = 5/2x + k intersect at the point
(2,6). Find the value of k.

Answer 1

Answer:

• k = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

• Given equations: y = 2x + 2 and y = 5x/2 + k
• Given intersection point: (2,6)

P.S, I solved this problem graphically. If you have any problems, please write them in the comments.

Explanation:

To find the value of k (y-intercept of 2nd line), we will need to draw a graph. Please check out the uploaded graph. In the graph, it tells us that the y-intercept of 2nd line is 1.

Hence, the value of k is 1.
