Write the slope-intercept equation of the line that has a slope of 0 and passes through (–4, 5)

Solution

The general equation of a line in the slope- intercept form is y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y -intercept. Here, m = 0, therefore, the equation of the required line changes to y = 0*x + c or, y = c. Further, since the line passes through the point ( -4, 5), on substituting x = -4 and y = 5 in the equation odf the line, we get 5 = c, Thus, the equation of the required line is y = 5.
