The above pair of points have no slope.

# ( -1 , 2) = color(blue)(x_1 , y_1#

# ( 6,2) = color(blue)(x_2 , y_2)#

The slope is calculated using formula:

Slope # = color(blue)(( y_2 - y _1)/(x_2 - x_1)#

# = ( 2 -2 ) / ( 6 - (-1))#

# = ( 0 ) / ( 6 + 1)#

# = 0 #

The above pair of points have no slope.
