We are asked to find the slope intercept equation for a line that passes through (5,0) and has a slope of 0.

We'll use the point-slope formula for that.

Remember, point-slope is:

`\bullet\qquad\rm{y-y_1=m(x-x_1)}`

Substitute the values:

`\large\begin{gathered}\sf{y-0=0(x-5)}\\\sf{y-0=0}\\\boxed{\sf{y=0}}\end{gathered}`

Answer 2

y = 0

Explanation:

y = mx + b

if slope = 0 and passes through (5,0)

then

0 = 0(5) + b

b = 0

then y = 0
