Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the coordinates of the two points

The given points are \((x_1, y_1) = (10, 7)\) and \((x_2, y_2) = (1, 8)\).

Step 2: Apply the slope formula

The slope \(m\) of the line passing through two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\) is given by the formula: \[m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]

Step 3: Substitute the given values into the formula

Substituting the given values into the formula, we get: \[m = \frac{8 - 7}{1 - 10} = -0\]

Final Answer:

The slope of the line that passes through the points \((10, 7)\) and \((1, 8)\) is -0.
