Let us suppose that a line y = mx +c passes through the points (2,3) and (-3,3). Now our work is to find m and c by the conditions that the points (2,3) and (3, -3) satisfy the equation y = mx+c, or mx+c = y.
Since (2,3) satisfy mx+c = y, put x=2 and y = 3.
m(2)+c = 3.
2m+c = 3..................(1)
Similarly, the other point (3,3) also should satisfy mx+c = y. So,
3m+c = 3..................(2)
Now we solve for m and n from equations (1) and (2):
Eq(3)- Eq(1) eliminates c.
(3m+c)-(2m+c) = 3-3
m = 0.
Substituting m =0 in (1), c = 3.
So y= mx+c now becomes, y = 0x+3 . Or y =3 is the equation that passes through (2,3) and (3,3)..
