Answer:
k=3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
So parallel lines have equal slopes but different y-intercepts
First line is y=4x+3 (divide by 2 and simplify) and second line is
We only care about slope, so
First slope is 4 and the second slope is (3/k), so
4=3/k, find k using cross multiplication
4k=3, so k=3/4
