Question

Write the equation of the line passing through point (-5, -4) and parallel to y = -3

Answer 1

A line parallel to a horizontal line is also horizontal.

The equation of the line parallel to

`y=-3`

is of the form

`y=b`

Since, the line passes through (-5,-4), the value of b is -4

So, the required equation is

`y=-4`

Hence, the correct option is (c)
