Which equation represents the line that is parallel to y = 3 and passes through (-2,-8)?

*EDIT*

y = - 8       

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is 0 so y + 8 = 0(x + 2)

y = -8

y= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step I took was to draw this problem out. I have attached a picture as you can see below. I first drew y=3 (keep in mind that in my graph 2 squares = 1 unit). Then, I located (-2, -8). I noticed that it passed through y= -8. Now, as you might recall, two lines are parallel when they are always the same distance apart and never intersect. y= -8 is parallel to y=3 and it passes through the point (-2, -8).

The equation of this line is y= -8.

I hope this helps.

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0
