The two points lie on a line. Find the slope of each line.
(a) (−1, 5), (6, 5)
= ________
(b) (−7, 2), (−1, 10)
= ____________
I'll do (a)...you can try b
Slope = [ subtract the y coordinates in some order ] / [ subtract the x coordinates in the same order ]
[Note...the order does not matter as long as it's the same ]
So we have for (a)
Slope = [ 5 - 5] / [ 6- -1 ] = 0 / 7 = 0
