Write the standard form of the line that passes through the point (1,5) and is parallel to the x -axis. include your work in your final answer. type your answer in the box provided to submit your solution.

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A line parallel to the x- axis has equation

y = c

Where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (1, 5) with y- coordinate of 5, thus

y = 5 ← equation of line

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)

-6 is the correct option from the above given options
