Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation for

each graph described.
Line passing through (-2,-8) and (9,-8)

Answer 1

y=-8

Explanation:

First find the slope which is rise over run which equals (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(-8-(-8))/(9-(-2))

(-8+8)/(9+2)

0/11

slope = 0

Now you have the slope of 0. You can plug in one of the given point (x,y) to find b

-8=0(9)+b

-8=b

Combine everything

y=0x-8

y=-8
