Question

Answer the following question:

Obtain the equation of the line containing the point (2, 3) and parallel to the X-axis.

Sum

Solution

The equation of the line parallel to X-axis is of the type y = b. If this contains the point (2, 3), then the coordinates of this point satisfy this equation.

∴ b = 3

∴ the equation of the line parallel to X-axis and containing the point (2, 3) is y = 3.
