Slope =0
y-intercept =47

Explanation:

slope is the change in y divided by a corresponding change in x. Since for the given equation the value of y does not change (it's change =0); the slope is 0.
y=47 is a horizontal line.

y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. For the given equation y=47 for all values of x; therefore the y-intercept is 47
