Understanding Horizontal Lines: The equation given is $y = 8$ , which is a horizontal line. To find the slope of a horizontal line, we need to understand that a horizontal line has a slope of $0$ because there is no change in the $y$ -value as the $x$ -value changes.
Finding the Slope of a Horizontal Line: The slope $m$ of a line in the slope-intercept form $y = mx + b$ is the coefficient of $x$ . In the equation $y = 8$ , there is no $x$ term, which means the slope $m$ is $0$ .
Determining the Slope of $y = 8$ : Since the slope is $0$ , the correct answer from the given options is (A) $0$ .
