Answer:

k=-3

Explanation:

Plug in x and y values

-40=k(14)+2

-2 both sidea

-42=k(14)

divide by 14 both sides

k=-3

k = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx + 2 through the point a(14, -40)

Subtitute…

y = kx + 2

-40 = k(14) + 2

-40 = 14k + 2

-40 - 2 = 14k

-42 = 14k

(-42)/14 = k

-3 = k
