+14985 write an equation of the line that passes through the points
(3,8) (-2,8)
\(m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)
\(m=\frac{8-8}{-2-3}=\frac{0}{-5}=0\)
\(m=0\)
\(y_1=mx_1-b\)
\(b=mx_1-y_1\)
\(b=0\times 3- 8\)
\(b=-8\)
\(y=mx+b\)
\(y=0\times x-8\)
\(y=-8 \) \(is \ the \ equation.\)
!
\(Simpler \ solution: y_1=y_2=-8\)
\(y=-8\) \(is \ the \ equation.\)
