Solution
The correct option is
B
0
The horizontal line is not moving upwards or downwards.
So, slope can't be positive or negative.
The only possible value is 0.
We also know that, when a car is at rest, it does not move anywhere.
So, distance traveled by a car at rest = 0 units
∴ The slope of the graph is 0.
