Question

(-2,-7) and (7,-7) What slope

Answer 1

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope can be found using:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

We know two points: (-2, -7) and (7, -7).

We can assign y2 to -7, y1 to -7, x2 to 7, and x1 to -2. Substitute them in.

$m=\frac{-7--7}{7--2}$

$m=\frac{-7+7}{7+2}$

$m=\frac{0}{9}$

m=0

So, the slope is 0.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the slope, subtract -7 and -7, which is -7-(-7)=-7+7=0

Then subtract 7 and -2, which is 7-(-2) = 7+2=9

Divide 0 and 9 which equals 0

the slope is 0
