Question

Find the equation of the horizontal line through (5,3)

Answer 1

y = 5
( Not sure if im right though xD)

Answer 2

How did you get that though?

Answer 3

um , bcos x=5

Answer 4

y=3

Answer 5

for all values of x, y=3

Answer 6

ohh im wrong then xD

Answer 7

[here, jjwings22, y=-(5/3)+3

Answer 8

SalaamPerc can you show me how you got -5/3?

Answer 9

ok, a straight line graph is define by the th eequation... y=mx+c hop u understnd. where, m=gradient & c is the y-value when x=0, therefore, y=mx+3, but the points are A(0,3) & B(5,0), Substitute B in the equation, which gives.. 0=m(5)+3, which gives m= -5/3, which is your gradient. Hence the equation y=-5/3m+3 is the equation of your graph, hop it helps ^_-
