Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-8,-4) and (4,-4)

Answer 1

`(0)/(4) x`

Explanation:

We can use the equation:
`(-4)/(-4) (-(-4))/(-(-8))`

After solving, we get
`(0)/(4) x`.

This means that the equation of the line is y = -4. This is a horizontal line moving infinitely in both directions with a constant y-value of -4.

Answer 2

y2-y1/x2-x1=-4-(-4)/-8-4=0/-12=0

The slope of the line is 0.
