Question
Reduce the following equation into slope-intercept form and find their slopes and the y-intercepts.
y = 0
Solution
The given equation is y = 0.
It can be written as
y = 0.x + 0 … (1)
This equation is of the form y = mx + c, where m = 0 and c = 0.
Therefore, equation (1) is in the slope-intercept form, where the slope and the y-intercept are 0 and 0 respectively.
