Write an equation that passes through the points (0,-5) and (8,-5)

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Equation of the line: $y = -5$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $(x_0,\, y_0)$ and $(x_1,\, y_1)$ denote the coordinates of these two points, respectively.

Calculate the slope $m$ of this line:

$\displaystyle m = \frac{y_1 - y_0}{x_1 - x_0} = \frac{(-5) - (-5)}{8 - 0} = 0$ .

Notice that the slope is zero because the two points have the same $y$ -coordinates ( $y_0 = y_1 = -5$ ) even though their $x$ -coordinates are distinct ( $x_0 \ne x_1$ .)

Equation for this line in point-slope form:

$y - y_0 = m\, (x - x_0)$ .

$y - (-5) = 0\, (x - 0)$ .

Rewrite and simplify to obtain the equation of this line in slope-intercept form:

$y = -5$ .

The $x$ -term was eliminated because the slope was zero.
