Let g(x) = 4x - 20 and h(x) = -1/2x + k. For what value of k is the zero of h(x) equivalent to the zero of g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The zero of a function is also known as the x-intercept of a function. The x-intercept of a function exists where y = 0. So we will begin by setting each of those lines = 0:

4x - 20 = 0     and     -1/2x + k = 0 and then solve each for x:

4x = 20 so

x = 5 and

-1/2x = -k and

1/2x = k so

x = 2k. Now we set the 2 x expressions equal to each other and solve for k:

5 = 2k so

k = 5/2
