i found the slope of vertex B=(1,9) C=(8,9), which i think happens to be 0/7,,, is this possible???
im just curious if i solved it correct or not..
thanks

you solved it right, since the line BC never goes up/down(the y-coordinate never changed, graph it and you'll see) the slope is 0. and 0/7=0, so you're right.
it would be impossible if you got 7/0, because you can't divide by 0.

Yes it is if you notice both the y's are on 9 making it a horizontal line which technically has a slope of zero because 0/7 is also saying 0 divided by seven which is 0.

That is correct, slope is rise over run, since both coordinates have the same y value, the slope is zero because it is a horizontal line.

The two points have the same y value, so the slope is zero (no rise over the range of x).

Yes it is correct, the slope is 0, BC is parallel to the x axis.
