QuestionCalculate the slope of the line through the points (2,1)(-2,1) and (3,1)(-3,1).

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The coordinates of the first point are (-,1) . The coordinates of the second point are (-3,1)

STEP 2

The slope of a line passing through two points (x1,y1)(x1, y1) and (x2,y2)(x2, y2) is given by the formulalope=y2y1x2x1lope = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the coordinates of the two points into the formula to calculate the slope.
lope=113(2)lope = \frac{1 -1}{-3 - (-2)}

STEP 4

implify the numerator and the denominator.
lope=01lope = \frac{0}{-1}

STEP 5

Calculate the slope.
lope=0lope =0The slope of the line that passes through the points (2,1)(-2,1) and (3,1)(-3,1) is0.
