5. Using Linear Models
Sign In
We are given a point and a slope, so we can use the point-slope form.
y=2
In this form, A, B, and C are integers and A and B cannot both be zero. In this case, we haven't been given an equation, so we will need to use the given point and slope to write one. Notice that the given slope represents a horizontal line.
The equation of this line is y=2. Is this in standard form? Let's try to rewrite it using values for A, B, and C. Ax+ By&= C 0x+ 1y&= 2 As we can see, even though the x-variable is missing, it is in standard form.
