Write the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (2, 2).

|dw:1383348951268:dw| can you draw it there? keep in mind is HORIZONTAL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know how to get the answers their giving... A- y=x+2 B- x=y C- x=2 D-y=2

Ugh it won't let me see the whole thing.😫

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmm ughh... chucks I see you're using Internet Explorer, try using firefox or chrome or something else

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm on my iPad so I can't:/ I'm sorry..

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmmm...

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so likely you're using safari..... safari should handle that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It sucks because I sort of understand I just always get it wrong!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got onto my computer but I still don't know what x=... is it two? @jdoe0001

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

do you see the graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I do, but I do not see what x= @jdoe0001

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well, the equation is a horizontal line, thus is not based on "x", is just y = 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So in every equation that is horizontal the variable will be y? @jdoe0001

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

or one can say \(\begin{array}{llll} x=\pm5&y =2\\ x=\pm500&y =2\\ x=\pm5,000,000&y =2\\ x=\pm5,000,000,000&y =2\\ \textit{and so on}\implies\bf y = 2 \end{array}\) and yes, " every equation that is horizontal the variable will be y"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you so much, I understand better now.:)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

just like every equation that is a VERTICAL LINE, the variable will be "x"|dw:1383350169174:dw|
