What is the value of k

Answer 1

To find the value of \( k \) in the second table, we can use the equation:

\[
y = -x + 5
\]

We know that when \( y = 4 \), we can set up the equation to solve for \( x \):

\[
4 = -k + 5
\]

Now, rearranging the equation to solve for \( k \):

\[
-k = 4 - 5
\]
\[
-k = -1
\]
\[
k = 1
\]

So, the value of \( k \) is \( 1 \).
