let (x1, y1) = (-1,3) and (x2, y2) = (7,3)
slope formula
m= y2 - y1/ x2 -x1
m= 3 -3 / 7 -(-1)
m= 0/8
m = (0 answer) it is a horizontal line
the slope of a vertical line is undifine

m = (3 - 3) / (7 + 1) = 0
slope = 0
This would be the slope of a line that runs parallel to the x axis.

It's 0
To get the slope -> (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
3 -3 = 0
7 + 1 = 8
0/8 = 0
m (slope) = 0

Slope equation: m=y2-y1/x2-x1 y2-y1=0 so the slope, m, =0

slope(m)=3-3/7-(-1)
=0/8
=0
so, no slope.

The answer is 0.

draw it, it has no slope as there is no change in the y axis value.
