collinear = have same gradient

$${collinear}\:=\:{have}\:{same}\:{gradient} \\ $$

slope=((4−4)/(6−3))=((4−k)/(3−2))  4−k=0     so k=0

$${slope}=\frac{\mathrm{4}−\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{6}−\mathrm{3}}=\frac{\mathrm{4}−{k}}{\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{4}−{k}=\mathrm{0}\:\:\:\:\:{so}\:{k}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$
