Question

The line passes thru the points (2,-5) and (8,-5)

Answer 1

good to know :)
but what do u need with that ? find equation of line ? or just slope ?

Answer 2

Says to write an equation of a line given the following information.

Answer 3

so, lets start with the slope, do u know how to find slope given 2 points ?

Answer 4

i had written it \[m=\frac{ -2-(-5) }{ 8-2}\]

Answer 5

naah, you see that y co-ordinates of both points are same, right ?
so numerator of slope = y2-y1 = -5 -(-5) = -5 +5 = 0
so the entire slope = 0
got this ?

Answer 6

then the equation would be just y=c , (because in y=mx+c, m=0)
and the y co-ordinate is just -5
so the equation is just
y=-5

Answer 7

-.-; I wrote it incorrectly on my homework when I was trying to solve it but wrote it correctly here, oy. Thank you

Answer 8

welcome ^_^
