Find the slope and y-intercept.
x = –8
X+8=0
Y*0=X+8
DIVISION BY ZERO IS NOT ALLOWED ,BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT IF WE TRY TO PUT IT IN STD.FORM
Y=MX+C
M=INFINITY...OR...UNDEFINED
SINCE X=-8...IT MEANS X INTERCEPT IS -8
IF YOU PLOT YOU WILL SEE THAT IT IS PARALLEL TO Y AXIS OR PERPEDICULAR TO X AXIS GOING THROUGH X=-8 AND Y=0

A) Slope: undefined; y-intercept: (0, –8) C) Slope: undefined; y-intercept: none
B) Slope: 0; y-intercept: none D) Slope: 0; y-intercept: (0, –8)
