Hi,
Using point-slope form of line
%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+x%5B1%5D%29+=+m
Questions states the following points
(-2,-5)& (6,-5)
.
%28%28-5%29+-+%28-5%29%29%2F%28%28-2%29+-%286%29%29=+m
.
0%2F-8=+m
m = 0 Line parallell to x-axis as y value of -5 never changes
.
slope-intercept form
y = mx + b where be in the y-intecept
.
y = -5
