Answer & Analysis
Answer
A
Analysis
To determine which pair of points would yield a line with a zero slope, we need to use the formula for slope, which is . A zero slope means that the -values of the two points are the same, resulting in .
Let's calculate the slope for each pair of points:
A.For the points (2, 3) and (5, 3):
B.For the points (1, 4) and (3, 7):
