Though it is not stated, it is presumed that (k, k+1) and (k-3, 3k+4) are the two points on a straight line, with slope 2, and it is required to find the equation of the line in the point slope form.
Accordingly the slope of the line will be 2=
= . This can be simplified to
-6 = 2k+3, giving k= -9/2
The point k, k+1
would thus be -9/2, -7/2. The
point slope form of the equation of line would thus be y+7/2=
2 (x+9/2)
