Answer:

No slope

Explanation:

Slope (m) = (change in the y-values)/ (change in the x-values)

Slope (m) = (7 - 1) / [-5 - (-5)]

Slope (m) = 6/0

There is no slope because you can not divide by 0

Answer:

Slope formula can be determined through this equation,

y2 - y1 / x2-x1

Now we can pair these up

-5,1

-5 can be x1 and 1 be y1

Whilst

-5,7

-5 can be x2 and 7 can be y2

Now we follow formula

7-1 / -5- -5

6/0 is the slope
