You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1. there are infinite solutions to y=x-8...this is an equation of a line....and all the points that make up that line are solutions. If you choose x to be 1 you plug it into the equation and solve for y. y=1-8=-7..so one ordered pair is (1,-7)....and this can go on forever.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2. we need to use the point slope formula to write this equation. In order to do this we need m the slope. m=change in y/change in x. Using our 2 points we have: -2-9/-5-(-5). The denominator is -5+5=0. Therefore this make the slope undefined. when a slope is undefined we know we have a vertical line and that line is parallel to the y axis and all x's equal -5 while y and be any value. the equation is written as x=-5
