How do you find the slope of the line passing through (-2,4) and (2,4)?

Answer 1

m=0

The formula for calculating slope is the change in y over the change in x (this is also known as "rise over run"). In other words, it tells us how quickly the graph is rising or falling.

We use a simple formula to find slope, #m=(Deltay)/(Deltax)#, where #Deltay# is the difference between the two y-values of the endpoints, and #Deltax# is the difference of the x-values.

In this case, #Deltay = 4-4 = 0#, and #Deltax = 2-(-2) = 4#. Therefore, #m=0/4=0#

To find the slope of the line passing through two points, you can use the formula:

Slope = (change in y) / (change in x)

Given the points (-2,4) and (2,4), the change in y is 4 - 4 = 0, and the change in x is 2 - (-2) = 4.

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (-2,4) and (2,4) is 0/4, which simplifies to 0.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
