Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (10,5) and (9,5)

Answer 1

Explanation:

Slope-intercept form: → $y=mx+b$

m: represents the slope and is constant.

b: represents the y-intercept.

Rise/run.

$\frac{rise}{run}$

$m=\frac{rise}{run}$

$slope=\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}$

$(x^1, y^1)=(10,5)$

$(x^2, y^2)=(9,5)$

$rise=y^2-y^1=5-5=0$

$run=x^2-x^1=10-9=1$

0/1 is undefined.

The slope is 0.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Answer 2

Hi! For this you need to use the slope formula:

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

m = 5 - 5 / 9 - 10

m = 0 / -1

m = 0

The slope is 0.

Hope this helps!
