Question

What is the equation of a line, in general form, that passes though points (-1,2) and (5,2)?

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of the line. first calculate the slope using the slope formula.

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{2-2}{5--1}= \frac{0}{6} = 0$

Since the slope of this line is 0, it is horizontal and has the form y=b where b is the y-coordinate. So y = 2 is the equation. In general form, it would be y-2 = 0
