Plot the two points on a graph. When you do, you will notice that the line is horizontal. All horizontal lines have a slope of zero.

The slope of a line can be found by using the coordinates of the points you mentioned. Slope is the ratio of “rise over run”. This means the change in y over the change in x.

(-5-(-5)) / (2 – 0) = 0

If you were to draw the 2 points on a graph, you sould see that there is no slope. The line is horizontal.

The slope is 0 because the line is horizontal

properly the equation of a line is y=mx+b. you comprehend that M in the equation is comparable to the slope and you comprehend that 2 is the slope by using fact it replaced into given. So first plug in what you comprehend into the formula. it is going to look like this: y=(2)x+b. Then plug in 0 for the x and 5 for the Y by using fact thats how that is once you may graph it. the 1st continually being the x and the 2d being the y. it is going to look like this: 5=(2)(0)+b. you’re fixing for b, so once you remedy it you will desire to get 5=b. Now which you comprehend the slope and y-intercept to your equation plug it in. the respond would desire to be y=2x+5

slope = y2-y1/x2-x1

-5-(-5)/0-2= slope

0/-2= slope

slope= 0

The line is a horizontal line.

If the 0 was in the denominator, then the slope would be undefined and the line would be vertical.

slope = 0

The Y value for both points is the same, meaning it’s a straight horizontal line. The slope of a horizontal line is zero.

You don’t ALWAYS have to resort to formulas for the answer… sometimes it helps just to visualize it 😉
