Help me understand this
-Write the equation of the line passing through the points (45,5) and (-5,5)
-5-(5)
_______ = 1/5
-5-(45)
How is this right? please tell me it should be 0/-50 or something!
Answered by Reiny
slope = (5-5)/(-5-45) = 0/-50 = 0

where did the 1/5 come from??

that's what it said should I send a screen shot?
Answered by Reiny
No need, if those points are typed correctly, the answer of 1/5 is incorrect.
The slope is 0
if you plot the points you will have a horizontal line
