The slope of line 1 is equal to 2.
The slope of line 2 is equal to 0
Line 1 has a larger slope, as the y value in line 2 does not change between x values.
To find the slope of each line, we can use the slope formula.
[tex]\frac{y.2 - y.1}{x.2 - x.1} = m[/tex]
Line 1:
8 - (-4) / 3 - (-3)
12 / 6
2
Line 2:
-3 - (-3) / 8 - 5
0 / 3
0
