Answer:

0 or no slope

Explanation:

Slope formula:

m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

Two points are given:

(5, 9) (−2, 9)

m = 9 - 9 / -2 - 5

m = 0 / -7

m =
(rise)/(run)

As you can see here and at the result, there is zero rise, so at this point the slope of the line joining (5, 9) and (−2, 9) is zero or no slope
