Question

Question 6 (5 points)

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

Question 6 options:

a)
undefined

b)
0

c)
1

d)
9

Answer 1

`\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{3})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{3-3}{5-(-4)}\implies \cfrac{0}{5+4}\implies \cfrac{0}{9}\implies 0`

Answer 2

b 0

Explanation:

To find the slope between 2 points

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

= (3-3)/(5--4)

= (3-3)/(5+4)

= 0/9

=0

The slope is 0
