What is the slope of the line that contains the points (-23, -16) and (13, -16)? what is the slope of the line that contains the points (-2, 1) and (0, -3)?

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  Slope is the ratio of (change in y) to (change in x). Here there is no change in y. (y is constant at -16) So, the slope is zero (0).

___

2. The change in y is (-3 -1) = -4. The change in x is (0 -(-2)) = 2. The ratio of change in y to change in x is ...

  slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = -4/2 = -2

1. Slope is 0

2. Slope is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (-23,-16) and (13,-16)

Slope formula

The slope is 0.
