Hi!,

I think you have to use this equation which I forgot what it is called....$$(y-y _{1})= m(x-x _{1})$$

peachesncream8 · Answer

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

peachesncream8 · Answer

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

peachesncream8 · Answer

Sorry I read the question wrong

peachesncream8 · Answer

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

peachesncream8 · Answer

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