The equation of the line that passes through point (–6, 7) with a slope of 0

A. x = –6
B. x = 7
C. y = –6
D. y = 7

Solution: The general equation of the line is given by:

y = mx + c Where m is the slope of the line with b as the constant.

Substituting the slope and the given point, we get the value of b.

y = (0)x + b

7 = (0)(-6) + b

7 = b

Hence, the equation of the line is given by:

y = (0)x + 7

y = 7 is the equation of the line.
