Hello! To calculate the slope we have to use the formula below:


slope=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Considering (x1, y1) = (-6, 6) and (x2, y2) = (5, 6), we have to replace it in the formula:


slope=\frac{6-6_{}}{5_{}-(-6)_{}}=(0)/(5+6)=(0)/(11)=0

As the slope is 0, the line will not vary (will keep constant).
