Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-coordinates of the points are the same, so it is a horizontal line with a slope of 0.
___
slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = (4 -4)/(-5-(-1)) = 0/-4 = 0
ANSWER
0
EXPLANATION
The slope of a straight line is calculated using the formula:
[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} [/tex]
The given line passes through (-1,4) and (-5,4).
We substitute the points into the formula to get:
[tex]m = \frac{4 - 4}{ - 5 - - 1} [/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{4 - 4}{ - 5 + 1} [/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]m = \frac{0}{ - 4} [/tex]
Zero divided by any number is zero.
Therefore, the slope is:
[tex]m = 0[/tex]
