It is a horizontal line. The slope = 0.
The line cuts the y-axis at the point $(0, 9)$ $(0,9)$

$y = 9$ $y = 9$ is the equation of a horizontal line. The slope is 0.

If we write it in slope-intercept form we will have:

$y = 0 x + 9$ $y = 0x +9$

This means that for any value of $x$ $x$ that is chosen, the y-value is always 9 Hence $y = 9$ $y =9$ .

The y-intercept is at the point $(0, 9)$ $(0,9)$
