Find the slope of each line segment and interpret the results?
(62,7000) (64,7000) (67,10000) (70,12400)
--------------
Label the points A, B, C, D in order
AB's slope = 0
----------------
BC: m = (10000 - 70000)/3 = 1000
-------------------
CD: m = (12400 - 10000)/3 = 800
---------
DA: m = (7000 - 12400)/8 = -675
