First, find the slope (m) using the formula: [tex] \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}  [/tex]

m = [tex] \frac{-5 - (-5)}{-1 - (-12)}  [/tex] = [tex] \frac{0}{11}  [/tex] = 0

Next, input the slope and ONE of the points into the point-slope formula:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)   ; where (x₁, y₁) is the chosen point

y - (-5) = 0(x - (-1))

y + 5 = 0

y = -5

Answer: y = -5
