Question

@jim_thompson5910 could you possibly help me with 2 more?

Answer 1

ok

Answer 2

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given points. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answer in the box provided or use the upload option to submit your solution.

(2, 3) and (2, 5)

Answer 3

what's the slope of the line?

Answer 4

hint: slope formula
\[\Large m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\]

Answer 5

5-3/2-2

Answer 6

up top we have 5-3 = 2
down in the bottom we have 2-2 = 0

since we cannot divide by zero, the slope is undefined

Answer 7

this is a vertical line. All vertical lines have undefined slopes

Answer 8

the equation is simply x = 2 since EVERY point has an x coordinate of 2

Answer 9

ok thanks and the last one is

Write the standard form of the line that passes through the given points. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answer in the box provided or use the upload option to submit your solution.

(4, 7) and (0, 7)

Answer 10

what's the slope here?

Answer 11

id have to figure it just 1 sec

Answer 12

ok

Answer 13

7-7/0-4

Answer 14

can you simplify that further?

Answer 15

no

Answer 16

up top 7-7 turns into ??

Answer 17

0

Answer 18

yep, and down below?

Answer 19

-4

Answer 20

we have 0 over -4

0 divided by -4 = 0

Answer 21

so the slope is m = 0

Answer 22

ok

Answer 23

since the slope is 0, the equation is simply y = 7
every point on this line has a y coordinate of 7

Answer 24

so how would i put this in standard form

Answer 25

it's already in standard form

notice how `y = 7` is really `0x + 1y = 7`

Answer 26

oh ok i got it thanks for all your help

Answer 27

you're welcome
