Question

Find the slope of the line through the given points (8,-3), (5,-3)

Answer 1

To calculate the slope, you can use the formula
$\frac{{y}^{2} - {y}^{1}}{{x}^{2} - {x}^{1} }$
In this case,
$\frac{( - 3) - ( - 3)}{8 - 5}$
Your slope is 0/3, which does not make sense so there should be something incorrect about your points.
