Find the slope of the line through the points (7, 3) and (9, 3), and reduce to the lowest terms.

Asked by caciquemm

Answer (2)

A point doesn't have a slope. A line has. You need to find the slope of the line that these 2 points are on. The slope is
(the difference of the 'y' values) divided by (the difference of the 'x' values)
That appears to be zero. It's a horizontal line.

The slope of the line through the points (7, 3) and (9, 3) is 0, as the y-values remain constant. This indicates that the line is horizontal. A horizontal line has a slope of zero because there is no vertical change between the two points.
