You can put this solution on YOUR website! All horizontal lines have a slope of zero.
We use the point-slope formula
y - given y coordinate = slope(x - x coordinate).
y - (-8) = 0(x -(-1))
y + 8 = 0
y = -8 is the horizontal line that passes through the given point (-1, -8).
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Any horizontal line has one value for no matter what is
The point that it passes through tells
you what that value is.
The point is (-1,-8), so the equation is
