I'm quite confused. Please help me with this one, too! |

Answer» Step-by-step EXPLANATION: If two lines are parallel then they have the same slope The slope of the X axis is ZERO ( the equation of x axis is y=0), therefore slope of the line is zero slope of a any line = Y2-y1/ x2-x1 Let point (-7,-3) be (x1, y1) Let (x2, y2) be another point on the line then 0 = y2-3/x2-7 0=y2-3 y2 = -3 Therefore the equation of the line is y=-3 If you draw the line y=-3 you will notice it is parallel to the x-axis and passes through (-3,-7 |
