Question 370209: Hello! quick question. why the line y = -3 is a horizontal line.
describe how this line sits on the Cartesian (coordinate) plane.
I have tried a few thoughts on this. Firstly the horizontal sits on the y intercept. The graph y = b is a horizontal line. -3 is to the left of the origin which is 0. It follows the order of a number line. Negative numbers to the left and positive numbers to the right. This is all I have so far. Did I get close??
Your help is appreciated!! Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Almost. y = -3 is 3 units BELOW the x-axis. It's a little different when you're operating on two-dimensional space.
