Answer:

There is no equation that you can write for that because the slope is undefined becasue 0 is in the denominator

Answer:

4x +5y = 25

Explanation:

One way to write the equation is ...

(y2 -y1)x -(x2 -x1)y = (y2 -y1)(x1) -(x2 -x1)(y1)

(1 -5)x -(5 -0)y = (1 -5)0 -(5 -0)5

-4x -5y = -25 . . . . . has a leading minus sign, so we want to multiply by -1

4x +5y = 25 . . . . standard form equation of the line

__

Another way to write the equation is ...

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

y = (1 -5)/(5 -0)(x -0) +5

y = -4/5x +5 . . . . slope-intercept form of the equation of the line
