A line is drawn on a coordinate plane so that it is parallel to the x-axis and passes through the point (4.6). Which statement identifies equation and slope of this line?

A. The equation of the line is y = 6, and the slope is 0
Explanations:Note that:
When a line is parallel to the x -axis, the slope of that line equals to zero
According to the question, the line passes through the point with coordinates (4, 6)
The equation of a line passing through a point of coordinates (x₁ , y₁) is given by the equation:
y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁)
x₁ = 4, y₁ = 6
Substitute x₁ = 4, and y₁ = 6 into the given equation:
y - 6 = 0(x - 4)
y - 6 = 0
y = 6
The equation of the line is y = 6, and the slope is 0
