Question

What slope would be parallel to y=6?

Answer 1

0

Explanation:

To put this in the easiest terms possible, the line y=6 is just a straight line going horizontally across the graph. ---------- <--(like that)

It is not slanted up or down so therefore it has no rate of change (slope).

Answer 2

Explanation:

Equation of a straight line is given as

y=mx+c

So we are given equation

y=6

This shows that m=0

Then the graph is a straight horizontal line cutting y at 6

The only slope that will be parallel to this is

y=mx+c, then m=0

y=c is the only line parallel to y=6

So, c can take on any finite values and it will be parallel to line y=6

So the slope of the line that will be parallel to y=6 is zero i.e m=0
