Question

State the slope of the line shown below.

0
1
–2
undefined

Answer 1

The slope would be 0 because the line does not intersect the x - axis.

Answer 2

Answer: 0

Explanation:

From then given graph , it can be seen that the line is parallel to x axis passing through
`y=-2`.

We know that if two lines are paralleled then they have equal slope.

We know that the slope of x-axis is 0.

[∵
`\text{Slope=}\frac{\text{Change in y coordinates}}{\text{Change in x coordinates}}=\frac{0}{\text{Chnage in x coordinates}}=0`]

Hence, the slope of the given line =0
