    Finding Slope
    Hi once again...

    I was asked to find the slope for the following:

    y=-3/2

    This isn't the same question, it's a similar question. I don't have a clue where to start. :confused:

    Try drawing the line on a graph first.

    You'll notice that it's a straight horizontal line.

    Since slope is rise over run and there is no rise the slope is zero.
