Question 197227This question is from textbook
: Find an equation in slope-intercept form passing through the points (-6.2,18.1) and (-3.4,18.1).

= = 0
So the equation of the line will be of the form,

where c is the y intercept.
Or

let (x1,y1) = (-6.2,18.1)
Solution :

slope = 18.1-18.1/-6.2-(-3.4)=0/-2.8=0
:
now using point slope formula y-k=m(x-h) where m is the slope and (h,k) is any point on the line
:
I will use point (-6.2,18.1)
:
y-18.1=0(x-(-6.2))
:
y-18.1=0
:
y=18.1...is the equation...this is an horizontal line 18.1 units above and parallel to the x axis
