That is impossible, because, if it is parallel to it, it can not be above it nor below it.

What is the equation for a horizontal line?
y = 4 y = -3 etc. Replace the number to the right with any convenient number. For example, in the first equation, the line is 4 units above the x-axis.
X equals 4 graph equation and plot points?
X = 4 is a vertical line, 4 units to the right of the y-axis.
What is a straight line parallel to an axis called?
It's called an ORDINATE. when there is a straight line 100% parallel to the x axis, it's slope is 0. If a line is parallel to the y axis, its slope is undefined, or infinite.
What is the slope intercept form of x equals 7?
The slope of the line x = 7 is not defined since the line is parallel to the y-axis. Also, for that reason, it cannot have an intercept on the y-axis. The equation of the line is simply: x = 7
What does a zero slope look like?
in a graph, a line with a zero slope is the one that is parallel to the x-axis. It is represented by an equation of the form y = a constant, independent of x values.
What do points on the lines parallel to the x-axis 5 units above it have in common?
5 units, x axis
Graph the equation y equals 2?
Y = 2 The graph is a horizontal line passing through the point Y=2 on the Y=axis. The line is parallel to the X-axis, and exactly 2 units above it everywhere.
Write the equation in slope intercept form for the line parallel to y equals 2 and with a y intercept of 3?
Start with the equation y = 2 Put that into slope-intercept form: y = 0x + 2 Change the y-intercept to 3 y = 0x + 3 or simply y = 3. This is a bit of a trick question to see if you understand the terminology. The line y = 2 is parallel to the x-axis, two spaces above it. A line parallel to that would also be parallel to the x-axis, and the intercept of 3 means that it is 3 spaces above the x-axis at the center of the graph. It remains 3 units above the x-axis out to infinity.
What equation represents a line parallel to the y-axis?
Any equation with the form y=c is parallel to the y-axis, where c is a constant.
What line is parallel to the y-axis?
Any line with the equation [ x = any number ] is parallel to the y-axis.
The line y equals -2.5 is parallel to what axis?
y=-2.5 is parallel to the x axis. The equation of the x axis is y=0
Which equation represents a line parallel to the x axis?
[ y = plus or minus any number ] is parallel to the x-axis.
Find the equation of a line that is parallel to the y-axis?
In 2-dimensional co-ordinate geometry, a line parallel to the y axis has the equation x = c where c is a constant.
What are the coordinates of a point two units to the right of the y-axis and three units above x-axis?
The coordinates of a point two units to the right of the y-axis and three units above the x-axis would be (2,3).
What is the equation of a line that passes through the point 1 2 and is parallel to the x axis?
Any equation parallel to the x-axis is of the form:y = constant In this case, you can figure out the constant from the given point.
What is the equation of a line that passes through the point 1 2 and is parallel to the x-axis?
Any equation parallel to the x-axis is of the form:y = constant In this case, you can figure out the constant from the given point.
Which equation represents a line parallel to the y-axis?
x=4
