Slope

Question 4 • Applications and Modeling

What is the slope of the line that cuts through the points (4, 2) and (-2, 2)?

Answer
A
0
B
1
C
undefined
D
2

Explanation

Use the slope formula: (change in y) ÷ (change in x). Between (4, 2) and (-2, 2), the y-values are the same, so the change in y is 2 − 2 = 0. The slope is therefore 0, the choice stating “0.”
