Question

Write an equation of the line that
passes through the points (-2,4) and
(2,4)

Answer 1

y=4

Explanation:

First, we need to find the slope of the line (m)

the equation is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

let's label the points

x1=-2

y1=4

x2=2

y2=4

susbtitute into the equation

m=(4-4)/(2--2)

m=0/4

m=0

the slope is 0.

now let's use point slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1)

once again let's subsitute into the equation

y-4=0(x+2)

do distributive property

y-4=0

add 4 to both sides

y=4

the equation is y=4

hope this helps!
