Question

The equation of the horizontal line goes through the point (-1,8)is

Answer 1

y = 8

Explanation:

Parallel lines are lines which do not intersect. If the line is parallel to the x-axis then it is a horizontal line that intercepts the y-axis at the y-coordinate of the point (-1,8). So the equation of the line is y = b where b is the y-coordinate or y-intercept. Here it is y = 8.
