Slope


\dotfill

In this problem, we're asked to find the slope of a line that passes through (3,8) and (-8,8).

With two points, we can find the slope by using the formula :


\implies\sf{m=\cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}

Substitute the coordinates into the formula :


\implies\sf{m=\cfrac{8-8}{-8-3}}


\implies\sf{m=\cfrac{0}{-11}}


\implies\sf{m=0}

Therefore, m = 0.
