Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use rise over run, (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the points, then simplify:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-1 + 7) / (4 + 5)

6/9

= 2/3

So, the slope of the line is 2/3

What is the slope of the line through (–4, 3) and (5, 3)?

miskamm [114]

Finding the slope using two points:

The formula for slope is

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

In this case...

$y_{2} =3\\y_{1} =3\\x_{2} =5\\x_{1} =-4$

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...

$\frac{3-3}{5 - (-4)}$

$\frac{0}{9}$

^^^This is your slope

If your slope is zero that means that the graph will be horizontal

Hope this helped!

Graphing it @ https://www.desmos.com/calculator , we get that f(x) clearly approaches inf at x=10 and a vertical asymptote is clearly 10
