slope of 0 means y=b
given the point (-6, 7), we know that y=7 so the equation is
y=7

The equation should be in the form y=mx+b, (m is the slope, b is the y-intercept) so substitute 0 for m, -6 for x, and 7 for y:
7 = (0)(-6) + b
7 = 0 + b
b = 7
Plug in 7 to the equation for b:
y = 0x + 7
Because zero x is zero, the equation can be simplified to:
y = 7!

A slope of zero means the line is horizontal, so it's in the form of y=k for some constant k. The only line that can do this through (-6,7) is y= 7.

This line runs parallel to the x axis and has a gradient (slope) = 0
Line is y = 7
