Horizontal means zero slope, or a zero coefficient on x.
Answer: y = b
First replace the x
X=3
2x3 to the power of 2
Then solve
2x3= 6
6 to the second power is 36 (6x6)
Answer 36
The slope is 3 because if you find the rise and run of two points. Run=1 rise=3 (divide the rise by the run) which equals 3. The slope is 3
The equation of a straight line in "standard form" resembles Ax + By + C = 0.
Starting with y − 3 = 1/3(x − 6) (which is the equation of a line in point-slope form), remove the fractional coefficient 1/3 by multiplying both sides of this equation by 3:
3y - 9 = x - 6.
We want all terms except for 0 to appear on one side of this equation. Subtract 3y from both sides, obtaining:
-9 = 1x - 3y - 6
Finally, add 9 to both sides, obtaining:
0 = 1x - 3y + 3
This result has the form Ax + By + C = 0, and is thus in standard form.
