Answer:

Let (-7, -6) be (x1, y1)

and (3, -6) be (x2, y2)

The slope can be found with
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Substitute in values:


(-6-(-6))/(3-(-7)) =0

The slope is 0. (It is a horizontal line.)

Answer:

0

Explanation:

Slope = Change in Y/Change in X

Slope = -6 - (-6)/3 - (-7)

Slope = 0/10

Slope = 0

This is a horizontal line
