Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the pair of points. ​
(4)1, 3.1), (-3.8, 3.1)
​
A) m = 0.40 
B) m = -Infinity 
C) m = 0.80 
D) m = 0.00 
E) m = 20.67

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using the formula for slope between two points: 
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Plugging in the coordinates: 
m = (3.1 - 3.1)/(-3.8 - 4) 
m = 0/(-7.8) 
m = 0

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the two points is 0, which corresponds to answer choice D.
