Hi
We have two points and we want to find the gradient/slope
We can look at a coordinate as (x,y) so you may notice that the Y is the same in both which suggests that it is the straight line y = 3

.
The line is the horizontal line y = 3, so its slope is equal to zero.



Or, you may apply the general formula for the slope  m =   and get the same answer.
