1 answer

To find the value of \( k \) that satisfies the equation \(-x^2 + 5x = -x + 5\), we first need to simplify this equation. First, rearranging the equation gives:

\[ -x^2 + 5x + x - 5 = 0 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ -x^2 + 6x - 5 = 0 \]

Now, multiplying everything by \(-1\) (to make the leading coefficient positive) results in:

\[ x^2 - 6x + 5 = 0 \]

Next, we can factor this quadratic equation:

\[ (x - 1)(x - 5) = 0 \]

Setting each factor equal to zero gives us the potential solutions:

\[ x - 1 = 0 \implies x = 1 \] \[ x - 5 = 0 \implies x = 5 \]

So, the solutions to the equation \( -x^2 + 5x = -x + 5 \) are \( x = 1 \) and \( x = 5 \).

Now, we need to check the table of values provided:

The table indicates the following values for \( x \):

  • 0
  • 0
  • 1 (which is one of our solutions)
  • 4
  • 2
  • 6
  • 3
  • 6
  • 4
  • 4
  • 5 (which is the other solution)
  • 0

Any of these values that match \( k \) which should be either 1 or 5 will be a solution to the given equation.

Thus, the correct responses for \( k \) that are solutions are 1 and 5. If you have to choose from the available options, then:

The response is 1 or 5 (depending on which one they were asking for in terms of \( k \)).
