what is the value of k if the function f(x)=(2-k)/(5x+k) if the graph of the function passes through the point (-1,1/2)

k = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the given point x = -1 an f(x) = 1/2, so we have the equation:

1/2 = (2 - k)/(5(-1) + k)

(2 - k)/(k - 5) = 1/2

Cross multiplying:

2(2 - k) = k - 5

4 - 2k = k - 5

-2k - k = -5 -4

-3k = -9

k = 3.
