Answer:

The slope is equal to zero

Explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to


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

we have


(-6,0),(4,0)

substitute the values in the formula


m=(0-0)/(4+6)


m=(0)/(10)


m=0

so

The line passing for the given points is a horizontal line (parallel to the x-axis)

The slope is equal to zero
