Answer:

slope = 0

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, 10 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 10 )

m =
(10-10)/(1-4) =
(0)/(-3) = 0

Answer:

The slope of the a straight line is given by the ratio of the Rise to the Run

of the line. The rise between the given points is zero.

The slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 10) and (1, 10) is zero.

Explanation:

The given points are; (4, 10) and (1, 10)

The slope of a line, m, is given by the following formula;

Where;

(x₁, y₁) = (4, 10) and (x₂. y₂) = (1, 10), we get;

The slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 10) and (1, 10) is 0.
