Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-8, 7) and has a
slope of o?

Answer 1

The equation of line is: y = 7

Explanation:

• point = (-8, 7)

• slope = 0

Using the point-slope form

`y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)`

where m is the slope, and (x₁, y₁) is the point

substituting the values m = 0 and the point (-8, 7)

`y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)`

`y-7 = 0(x-(-8))`

`y-7 = 0`

`y = 7`

Thus, the equation of line is: y = 7
