Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-6,8) and (-6,2).
Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal
line.

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step solution:

The two points you have are (-6, 8) and (-6, 2).

1) First, you want to find the slope.

The equation for slope is [tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}[/tex].

Let's have (-6, 8) be x_{1} and y_{1}, and (-6, 2 ) x_{2} and y_{2}.

So, you would get [tex]\frac{2 - 8}{-6 - (-6)}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{-6}{0}[/tex] = 0.

Since there is no slope, you know this is a horizontal or vertical line.

Because the two points have the same x- value, you know that it is a vertical line at x = -6.

You can see the two points and the line in the graph I've attached below.
