Concept explainers
To find:
The coordinates of two points on the line with the given equation. Then use the points to find the slope of the line.
Answer to Problem 8.11EP
The coordinates of two points on the line would be
The slope of the linepassing through the given points is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
An equation:
Concept used:
Calculation:
We can see that our given line is a horizontal line. We know that y -coordinates on a horizontal line remain same. Hence the y -coordinate for any x -value would be
Therefore, the coordinates of two points on the line would be
Now we will find the slope of line.
Let point
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the given points is
