  write the equation in slope-entercept form.
  
  W(-1, 2.4) and S(5, 2.4)
  
  m=2.4-(5)
  ______
  2.4-(-1)
  for the answer I get -2.6
  _____
  3.4
  
  is this right if not please show me where I got off track.

  Both points S and W have the same Y-value. The slope of the line between them is zero.
  
  The formula for m in this case is
  m = (2.4-2.4)/(5 -(-1)) = 0/6 = 0
  
  The equation of the line is is y = 2.4
