Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (5, -4) and (7, -4)?

A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. -4

Answer 1

The slope of the line passing through the points (5, -4) and (7, -4) is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line passing through two points can be found using the formula:

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

Using the given points (5, -4) and (7, -4), we can substitute these values into the formula:

slope = (-4 - (-4)) / (7 - 5) = 0 / 2 = 0

Therefore, the slope of the line that passes through the given points is 0 (option A).
