You can put this solution on YOUR website! The slope of a line is the change in y divided by the change in x. If the slope = 0, then there is no change in y, regardless of the change in x. So we have a straight horizontal line.
.
You have been given the point (0,-1) as being on the line, so that means the horizontal line runs across the graph at y=-1. That's the formula. Here's the graph.
