Find the Equation Using Slope-Intercept Form (6,-5) m=0

$(6, - 5)$ $m = 0$

Step 1

Find the value of $b$ using the formula for the equation of a line.

Use the formula for the equation of a line to find $b$ .

$y = m x + b$

Substitute the value of $m$ into the equation.

$y = (0) \cdot x + b$

Substitute the value of $x$ into the equation.

$y = (0) \cdot (6) + b$

Substitute the value of $y$ into the equation.

$- 5 = (0) \cdot (6) + b$

Find the value of $b$ .

Rewrite the equation as $(0) \cdot (6) + b = - 5$ .

$(0) \cdot (6) + b = - 5$

Simplify $(0) \cdot (6) + b$ .

Multiply $0$ by $6$ .

$0 + b = - 5$

Add $0$ and $b$ .

$b = - 5$

Step 2

Now that the values of $m$ (slope) and $b$ (y-intercept) are known, substitute them into $y = m x + b$ to find the equation of the line.

$y = - 5$
