Identify the slope and y-intercept for each line then graph:
y=2
I'm stuck. How do you know the slope and y-int?!
Is 2 the y-int and there is no slope?
Thanks in advance!

When y = 2 the slope is zero, it is not quoted in the equation. The y-intercept is 2.
Your thinking is correct!!!!

There is a slope. And the slope is zero. The y-int is 2. y = 2 no matter where what the x-value is.
y = 2 can be equivalently written y = 0x + 2
How do you expect anyone to graph this? Or did you just mindlessly copy straight out of the homework without formulating your own conceptual question? I wont do your homework for you. Try... and learn, okay?
I only answered to criticize your motives and to correct prior answerers... by explaining the problem to you in a way that you may actually learn.

If there is no coefficient of x (ie no number before x) which there is not in this equation, the k=line has no gradient and in this case is a horizontal line through the point (0,2).
And, yes, the y intercept is 2.

Yes, you are correct, there is no slope and the y-int is 2.

the slope is 0 and the y-intercept it 2
i hope this helps
