write the equation of a line that is parallel to y=9 and that passes through the point (3,-8)

Answer 1

The line y=9 has a slope of 0.

Therefore, the equation of a line passing through the point (3, -8) must also have a slope of 0.

Use point-slope form to write the equation.

y + 8= 0(x-3)

y + 8= 0

y = -8
