Math Problem Statement

  1. slope = 0 and passes through (10,7)

Solution

To find the equation of a line with a slope of 0 that passes through the point (10, 7), follow these steps:

Step 1: Understand the properties of the line

A slope of 00 means the line is horizontal. For a horizontal line, the yy-coordinate of every point on the line is the same.

Step 2: Write the equation

Since the yy-coordinate of the given point is 77, the equation of the line is: y=7y = 7

Final Answer:

The equation of the line is: y=7y = 7

  2. How does the slope affect the orientation of a line (e.g., 00, undefined, positive, negative)?
  3. What is the equation of a vertical line passing through (10,7)(10, 7)?
  4. How can you determine if two lines are parallel or perpendicular?
  5. What are some applications of horizontal lines in real-world scenarios?

Tip: For a horizontal line, only the yy-coordinate is fixed, while the xx-coordinate can take any value.
