Answer 2

The line passing through (-2,4) and (6,2) is not parallel to x-axis.

• For a line to be parallel to x-axis the y- coordinates must be same or the slope of the line must be equal to zero.
• Slope of the line is calculated by the formula,

Slope = $\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$ , where ($x_1,y_1$) and ($x_2,y_2$) are the points on the line.

• As the slope of the line passing through the points is not equal to xero, it is not parallel to x-axis.
