Answer:

y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Point Slope Form:  (y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Step 1:  Find the slope

m = [tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{-5 - (-5)}{1 - 3}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{-5 + 5}{-2}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{0}{-2}[/tex]

m = 0

Step 2:  Put into point slope form

(y - (-5)) = 0(x - (3))

y + 5 = 0

y = -5

Answer:  y = -5
