Math Problem Statement

whats the the equations of the horizontal line

Solution

The equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (7,1)(-7, 1) is:

y=1y = 1

This equation indicates that the yy-coordinate is always 11, regardless of the xx-coordinate.

Would you like more details or have any other questions?

Here are five related questions you might consider:

  1. What is the equation of a horizontal line that passes through the point (2,3)(2, -3)?
  2. How would the equation change if the point were (7,5)(-7, 5)?
  3. What is the equation of a horizontal line that passes through the origin (0,0)(0, 0)?
  4. Can a horizontal line ever intersect a vertical line?
  5. How do you determine the distance between two horizontal lines?

Tip: The equation of a horizontal line is always in the form y=constanty = \text{constant}, where the constant is the yy-coordinate of any point on the line.
