Question 3192
Start with the basic equation of a line:<br>
y = mx + b<br>
Since the slope m = 0, the equation becomes:<br>
y = 0*x + b = b<br>
where b is the y-intercept. To find the intercept, we take the equation:<br>
y = 0*x + b and put the values of the point (-4, 7) into the equation:<br>
7 = 0*(-4) + b, which means, b = 7. Our equation becomes:<br>
y = 7<br>
This means any value of x will produce the result y = 7. Graphically, it looks like:<br>
