People were wrong about Y2K because they believed the world was going to end in the year 2000. Obviously, that did not happen. Only computers needed to be changed over because they were not equipped to go beyond 1999.

How do you find the straight line equation given only that the slope is k passing through a point 3 and 2k on the line?

Suppose P = (x, y) are the coordinates of any point on the line. Then the segment of the line joining P to the point (3, 2k) has slope k That is, (y - 2k) / (x - 3) = k Simplifying, y - 2k = kx - 3k or y = kx - k equivalently, y = k(x - 1)


Was y2k real?

What does odd X even equal?

Let even be of the form 2k and odd be of the form 2k+1. Then odd * even becomes 2k*2k+1, or 4k^2 +2k. This can be written as 2(k^2 + k), which is of the form 2k. Therefore, odd X even equals even.

Suppose y varies directly as x if y equals 4 when x equals -2 what is y when x equals 30?

y varies directly as x y=kx, where k is any constant y = 4 when x=-2 4 = k (-2) 4 =-2k k=-2 Therefore, y=-2x When x=30 y = -2(30) = -60


For rowing If your 6k time is 22 minutes 42 seconds what should your 2k time be?

Your 2k time should be 7 minuets 47 seconds I'll have to disagree with the above answer, if you row a 6k in 22:42, that is a 1:53.5 500m split. If you rowed that same split for 2k that would give you a 7:34 2k (which basically means you did three of those in a row while rowing your 6k). However, since most people can hold a faster pace for 2k than they can for 6k, your 2k should be even less than that. Using a conversion factor I came up with, I estimate that your 2k should be around, 7:02
