Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points. (6, 1), (-6, 1)

Answer: m = 0
Step-by-step explanation: To find the slope of the line, we can use the graphing method. To do this, we start by plotting our two points.
Let's label (6, 1) as point A and (-6, 1) as point B.
Now, graph our line through the 2 points.
Now remember that the slope, or m, is equal to
the rise over run from point A to point B.
To get from point A to point B, we rise o units and run -12 units.
So our slope or rise / run is 0/-12 which simplifies to 0.
This should make sense because we have a horizontal or flat line and
remember that the slope of any horizontal or flat line is 0.
