Having no slope and having a slope of 0 are the same?
To calculate the slope of a line, we use a ratio that compares the change in y (the rise) to the corresponding change in x (the run). So, m = (Change in y)/(Change in x) = Rise/run, where the change in x cannot be 0. If m > 0, the line is rising from left to right. If m < o, the line is falling from left to right. If m = 0, the line is a horizontal line. This means that the change in y is 0. If the line is vertical, this means that the change in x is 0, and since we cannot divide by 0, the slope of a vertical line is undefined.
If the slope of a line is 0 is the line horizontal or vertical?
if the slope is 0, the line is horizontal.
What is the slope of a horizontal line?
The slope of a horizontal line is zero. It has a slope, but slope = 0 and this makes it different from a vertical line which has a slope that is undefined because you cannot divide 0 over 0 which is how much a vertical line rises and runs.Ways to find slope:(y2-y1)/(x2-x1 )orrise/run
How can you tell if a slope is zero or undefined?
A slope is 0 if it is a straight horizontal line. A slope is undefined if it is a straight vertical line.
A horizontal line has a rise which is?
The slope is 0. If it were vertical, the slope would be undefined. APEX ZERO
