x = −5
x = 9

Answer 1

@TheSmartOne can you help me?

Answer 2

Hi!,

I think you have to use this equation which I forgot what it is called....\[(y-y _{1})= m(x-x _{1})\]

Answer 3

plug in your points (-5,9) in for x1 and y1

Answer 4

solve for the slope to find the equation and you can solve for the line

Answer 5

Sorry I read the question wrong

Answer 6

I think you have to eliminate your answers down to the ones that equal y= because the line must be horizontal

Answer 7

so because your point is (-5,9) choose y=9
