Question

Write an equation of the line with a slope of 0 and y-intercept of 5.

Answer 1

y = 5

Explanation:

A line with a slope of zero is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

The equation of a horizontal line is

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (0, 5) with y- coordinate of 5, thus

y = 5 ← equation of line

Answer 2

y = 5.

Explanation:

The line is horizontal ( as the slope = zero) and will pass though the point where y = 5.
