Slope of the line through the points (-5, -9) and (7, -9)



m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+%28y%5B1%5D%29%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+%28x%5B1%5D%29%29


m+=+%28-9+-+%28-9%29%29%2F%287+-+%28-5%29%29


m+=+%28-9+%2B+9%29%2F%287+%2B+5%29


m+=+%280%29%2F%2812%29


m+=+0



Answer: Slope is m+=+0

(-5,-9) and (7,-9)
slope = [-9--9]/[7--5] = 0/12 = 0
