Question

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -5) and
(3, -5)?

Answer 1

y=-5

Explanation:

line equation is y=mx+b

y is the y value

m is the slope

x is the x value

b is the y intercept (when x is 0)

find slope rise over run (y increase divided by x increase)

-5-(-5)/-6-3

=0/-9

=0

y=(0)x+b

y=b

find y intercept (b)

you can see in the previous equation x already became 0 not on purpose

this means that that is the y intercept

y intercept is -5

y=0(x)-5

y=-5
