MCQ
The graph of $y + 2 = 0$ is a line.
  • A
    Parallel to the $y-$axis at a distance of $2$ units to the left of $y-$axis.
  • B
    Parallel to the $x-$axis at a distance of $2$ units below the $x-$axis.
  • C
    Making an intercept of $-2$ on the $x-$axis.
  • Making an intercept of $-2$ on the $y-$axis.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Making an intercept of $-2$ on the $y-$axis.
As, the graph of $y+2=0$ or $y=-2$ is a line parallel to $x$-axis i.e. $y=0$.
$\Rightarrow$ The line represented by the equation $y=-2$ is parallel to $x$-axis and intersects $y$-axis at $y=-2$.
So, the graph of $y+2=0$ is a line parallel to the $x$-axis at a distance of 2 units below the $x$-axis making an intercept -2 on the $y$-axis.
