Question

Find the slope of the line passing trough the given points. Point (. Point (4, -5/3) point (2, -5/3)

Answer 1

Given:

The line passing through the points (4, -5/3) point (2, -5/3) ,

The slope is calculated as,

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Here,

`\begin{gathered} (x_1_{}_{},_{}y_1)=(4,-(5)/(3)) \\ (x_2,y_2)=(2,-(5)/(3)) \\ m=(-(5)/(3)-(-(5)/(3)))/(2-4)=(0)/(-2)=0 \end{gathered}`

Answer: slope of the line passing through given points is zero.
