Question

find the slope of the line passes through the points G(7, 1) and H (-3, 1) ​

Answer 1

The slope of the line passing through points G(7,1) and H(-3,1) is 0.

• The slope of the line is calculated by the formula

slope = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

where (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) are the points on the line.

• Substituting the value in the formula, we get

slope = $\frac{1-1}{-3-7}$ = 0.

• The slope of this line can be calculated by checking the y-coordinates of both the points. As both the y-coordinates of the points is same , the line is parallel to x-axis. Therefore, the slope of the line is equal to zero.
