Solution:

Given:


y=10

This is the equation of a horizontal line.

The slope of a horizontal line is 0.

Comparing the equation to equation of a line in slope-intercept form,


\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \\ where; \\ m\text{ is the slope} \\ b\text{ is the y-intercept} \\ \\ Then, \\ y=mx+b \\ y=0x+10 \\ \\ Then, \\ m=0 \\ b=10 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the slope, m = 0

The slope of y = 10 is 0.
