What is the slope of the line for the equation y = -8? Algebra Graphs of Linear Equations and Functions Horizontal and Vertical Line Graphs 1 Answer smendyka Feb 9, 2017 By definition this is a horizontal line because the #y# value is the same for every #x#. Therefore the slope of this line is #0#. Answer link Related questions What are horizontal or vertical line graphs? What would the #(x,y)# table look like for a horizontal and a vertical line graph?
