oh you got this one!
OpenStudy (hoblos):
y=5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But isn't it unidentified ?
OpenStudy (eyust707):
ok so when i was learning these i first would graph them
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I would do m = y2-y1/x2-x1

OpenStudy (eyust707):
yea!
OpenStudy (eyust707):
thats m
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then y-y1=m(x-x1)
OpenStudy (eyust707):
no remember this (x,y)
OpenStudy (eyust707):
the first number is an x component
the second one is the y component

5-5/3-(-2) = m
OpenStudy (eyust707):
correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
0/5 or 5?
OpenStudy (eyust707):
0/5 = 0
OpenStudy (eyust707):
y=mx + b
y=(0)x + b

5 = (0)(-2)+b ? I'm using the first two points.
OpenStudy (eyust707):
so then b = ???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5
OpenStudy (eyust707):
yep b= 5
m=0
OpenStudy (eyust707):
put those into y=mx+b

y= 0x + 5
You said that 0 times x ='s 0
y = 0 + 5
y= ???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5 !!!!!! Oops .
OpenStudy (eyust707):
y=5
OpenStudy (eyust707):
that is the correct answer! good job!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So that's it ? Becuase I still have to write it in standard form.
