Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-7, 2) and (3,2).

Answer 1

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(2-2)/(3-(-7))

m=0/(3+7)

m=0/10

m=0

Answer 2

Answer:

$\displaystyle m = 0$

Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify.

Point (-7, 2)

Point (3, 2)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m.

1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:                                                          $\displaystyle m = \frac{2 - 2}{3 - -7}$
2. [Order of Operations] Evaluate:                                                                  $\displaystyle m = 0$
