Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-8, 9) and (6, 9).

Hello there!

Use the slope formula:

m=

Now, plug in all the values:

The slope is 0. Why?

If we are given 2 points and their y-coordinates are the same, then the line is a horizontal line. Its rise is zero.

Another formula for Slope is Rise/Run. If the rise (the amount of units we move up) is 0, then the slope is 0.

Hope this helps you!

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
