Algebra I

• Coordinates (x, y)
• Slope Formula:
  `\displaystyle m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (3, -10)

Point (14, -10)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:
   `\displaystyle m=(-10+10)/(14-3)`
2. [Fraction] Add/Subtract:
   `\displaystyle m=(0)/(11)`
3. [Fraction] Divide:
   `\displaystyle m=0`
