What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-5, -1) and (-3, -1)?

Answer

The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

For the points (-5, -1) and (-3, -1):

  1. y2 = -1, y1 = -1
  2. x2 = -3, x1 = -5

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

m = (-1 - (-1)) / (-3 - (-5)) = 0 / 2 = 0

Therefore, the slope of the line is 0.
