Write the equation of the line that passes through point (-6,7) with a slope of 0. This is multiple choice, but I would like to see how it is solved. My choices are:
-------------
If the slope is zero the line is parallel to the x-axis.
Since the line passes thru a point where y=7 it must pass thru all
the points where y=7.
Equation of the line is y=7.
