How do you find the slope of y=4/5y=45?

This function is constant, so "slope" = 0slope=0.

Explanation:

graph{0x +4/5 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

As we can see on the graph, yy is always the same. It happens because there isn't a xx present in the function y = 4/5y=45.

Now you may think that it is true, but it isn't. xx actually is present, but it remains hidden beucase x*0x0 or any number multiplied by 0 equals 0.

So, when you see any function that xx is not visually appearing, remember that it is there, but its "slope" = 0slope=0.

Hope you understand!
