How do you figure out the slopeee? Explain how. I have a test tomorrow and i am really scared!?

y=-1 is a y-line which means it has a slope of 0.------------------------ <--a y-linex=3 is a x-line which means it has undefined slope | | <--a x-line | | when you see y=(any #) with x nowhere in sight, the slope is 0when you see x=(any #) with y nowhere in sight, the slope in undefinedAs for the equation you can cheat a little. What they gave you is a slope-intercept equation, meaning that its format is this: y=mx+bAs you might already know, m is the slope, so in y=2x+4 the slope is 2.
