A slope of 0 indicates the line is a horizontal line. This means, for each any every value of x the y value is the same. In this problem, the point given has the y value as −3.
Therefore, the y-intercept is (0,−3) of −3.
The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept value.
Therefore, for this point and slope the equation would be:
y=0x+−3
Or
y=−3
