y = - 4

$y = - 4$

Step 1

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Step 1.1

The slope-intercept form is

y = m x + b

$y = m x + b$ , where

m

$m$ is the slope and

b

$b$ is the y-intercept.

y = m x + b

$y = m x + b$

Step 1.2

Find the values of

m

$m$ and

b

$b$ using the form

y = m x + b

$y = m x + b$ .

m = 0

$m = 0$

b = - 4

$b = - 4$

Step 1.3

The slope of the line is the value of

m

$m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of

b

$b$ .

Slope:

0

$0$

y-intercept:

(0, - 4)

$(0, - 4)$

Slope:

0

$0$

y-intercept:

(0, - 4)

$(0, - 4)$

Step 2

Find two points on the line.

\begin{matrix} x & y 0 & - 4 1 & - 4 \end{matrix}

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ 0 & - 4 \\ 1 & - 4 \end{array}$

Step 3

Graph the line using the slope, y-intercept, and two points.

Slope:

0

$0$

y-intercept:

(0, - 4)

$(0, - 4)$

\begin{matrix} x & y 0 & - 4 1 & - 4 \end{matrix}

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ 0 & - 4 \\ 1 & - 4 \end{array}$
