See a solution process below:

Explanation:

A slope of 0 indicates the line is a horizontal line. This means, for each any every value of x the y value is the same. In this problem, the point given has the y value as 3.

Therefore, the y-intercept is (0,3) of 3.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept value.

Therefore, for this point and slope the equation would be:

y=0x+3

Or

y=3
