Final answer:

The value of m for which (2,5) is a solution to the equation 2x+3y=m is 19. The value of k for which the point (k,-3) lies on the line 3x-y=6 is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if (2,5) is a solution of the equation 2x+3y=m and to find the value of m, we must substitute x with 2 and y with 5 into the equation.

2(2) + 3(5) = m

4 + 15 = m

19 = m

Therefore, the value of m is 19, and the point (2,5) is indeed a solution to the equation.

To find the value of k for which the point (k,-3) lies on the line represented by 3x - y = 6, we substitute y with -3 and solve for x, which in this case is k.

3k - (-3) = 6

3k + 3 = 6

3k = 3

k = 1

The value of k for which the point (k, -3) lies on the line is 1.
