Question

Find the equation of a line parallel to x axis and passing through the point (-3,2)​

Answer 1

Answer:

y=2 or 0x+y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

the line parallel to x axis mean that the graph will touch only y axis which means the value of x is 0.

now put x equals to zero.

now y will be 2

now form the equation

Answer 2

Answer:

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

since the line is parallel to x-axis, the gradient should be 0.

When you use the equation y=mx+c and substitue 0 as 'm', -3 as 'x' and 2 as 'y', you will get the equation as 2=(-3*0)+c. When you rearrange the equation, you will get 'c' as 2.

Since the gradient of the line is 0, the equation of the line will be y=0*x +2, which is basically y=2.
