How do you find the slope and intercept of #y=-2#?
1 Answer
See a solution process below:
Explanation:
One method is to write this in slope intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is:
Where
Therefore:
-
The slope is:
#color(red)(m = 0)# -
The
#y# -intercept is:#color(blue)(-2)# or#(0, color(blue)(-2))#
Another method is to know this form of equation represents a horizontal line where for each and every value of
By definition, the slope of a horizontal line is
And, if
