Write the equation of a line, in general form, that passes through points (-1, 2) and (5, 2).

Question

i just need it in general form

Answer 1

To find the gradient we divide the difference in the y coord by the difference in the x coord: 0/6=0. So the line is parallel to the x axis because there's no gradient at all, and y=2 is the line. The general equation for the line would be y=ax+b where a=gradient or slope=0 and b is the y intercept=2.
