Question

How do you find the slope, if it exists y= -7+4?

Answer 1

Slope is 0

There is no change in up or down for any amount of along.

Explanation:

`y=-7+4" " ->" " y=-3`

This is stating that no matter what value you assign to `x` the value of `y` is always -3.

So the plot is that of a straight line parallel to the x-axis but it passes through the point `(x,y)=(0,-3)`

As the line is horizontal then the slope is 0. In that:

`y=mx+c" "->" "y=0x-3" "->" "y=-3`
