Given the points:

(-1,7)(5,7)

x1 = -1

x2 = 5

y1 = 7

y2 = 7

Determine the slope of the line.

Formula for the slope of the line.

m = change in y/change in x

m = y2 - y1/x2 -x1

Solution:

Substitute the given values of y2, y1, x2, and x1 to the formula for the slope of the line.

m = 7 - 7/ 5 - (-1)

m = 0 /6

m = 0

Final answer:

The slope of the line is 0
