Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope of o?

Answer 1

The equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope of 0 will be:

• 
  `y=7`

Explanation:

As we know the equation of a line in a slope-intercept form of an equation is

`y = mx + b`

Here,

• m is the slop

• b is the y-intercept

so

substituting the point (4,7) and slope m=0

`y = mx + b`

`7=0(4)+b`

`7=0+b`

`b=7`

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope of 0 will be:

`y = mx + b`

`y=0x+7`

`y=7`
