Question

Write the slope-intercept equation of the line that has a slope of 0 and passes through (–4, 5). Please share with me steps

Answer 1

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line looks like this:    y = mx + b

     where m is the slope

      and b is the y-intercept (the place where x=0), so it is the point (0,b)

 

The line with slope of 0 (m=0) has the equation:

    y = 0x + b  or just   y=b

 

The line passes through point (-4,5) and the equation of the line is true for all of the points on it, so:

    y = 0x + b

    y = b

    5 = b              [substitute values of (-4,5) for x and y]

 

Now that you know the value of b, you may write the equation like this:

    y = 5
