Answer
(i) Given,
y = 4
Comparing it with y = mx + c, we get,
m = 0 and c = 4.
Hence, slope = 0 and y-intercept = 4.
(ii) Given,
⇒ ax - by = 0
⇒ by = ax
⇒ y = x
Comparing it with y = mx + c, we get,
m = and c = 0.
Hence, slope = and y-intercept = 0.
(iii) Given,
⇒ 3x - 4y = 5
⇒ 4y = 3x - 5
⇒ y =
Comparing it with y = mx + c, we get,
m = and c = .
Hence, slope = and y-intercept = .
