Q. A line with a slope of 0 passes through the points (2,9) and (10,q). What is the value of q?q=___
Identify Points and Slope: Identify the points and slope.Points: (2,9) and (10,q)Slope: 0Since the slope of a line is the change in y over the change in x, we use the formula:Slope =10−2q−9
Substitute and Solve for q: Substitute the slope value and solve for q.0=8q−9Multiply both sides by 8 to eliminate the denominator.0×8=(q−9)0=q−9
Solve for q: Solve for q.0=q−9q=9
