Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-9, -3)(−9,−3) and (1, -3) ?(1,−3)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

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

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 9, - 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 3 )

m = $\frac{-3-(-3)}{1-(-9)}$ = $\frac{-3+3}{1+9}$ = $\frac{0}{10}$ = 0
