Answer:

0

Explanation:

The slope of a line is a measure of its "steepness." To make that more precise, it's the rate of change of its vertical and horizontal coordinates, its


\Delta y/\Delta x, where Δ means "change in"

This never changes its y coordinate, so we could say its slope is
0/\Delta x, or just 0.
