Graph y=-5

Problem

y=−5

Solution

1. Identify the type of equation. The equation y=−5 represents a linear function where the value of y is constant regardless of the value of x

2. Determine the orientation of the line. Since y is always −5 this is a horizontal line.

3. Find the y-intercept. The line crosses the y-axis at the point (0,−5)

4. Identify the slope. For any horizontal line, the slope m is 0

5. Plot the graph. Draw a straight horizontal line passing through all points where the y-coordinate is −5 such as (−2,−5) (0,−5) and (2,−5)

Final Answer

y=−5* is a horizontal line passing through *(0,−5)
