Q:
What is the equation of the line that has a slope of 0 and passes through the point (6,-8)?
Accepted Solution
A:
[tex]\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-8})~\hspace{10em} slope = 0 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-8)=0(x-6)\implies y+8=0\implies y=-8[/tex]
