Solution

The correct option is B 0
Since slope of line passing through two points $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ is $m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$
We now find the slope of the line passing through the points $(7, 4)$ and $(- 9, 4)$ as shown below:
$m = \frac{4 - 4}{- 9 - 7} = \frac{0}{- 16} = 0$
Therefore, the slope of the line is $0$ .
