**Problem (A): Find the slope of the line that passes through the points $$ (-5, 4) $$ and $$ (1, 4) $$.**

To determine the slope $$ m $$ of a line passing through two points $$ (x_1, y_1) $$ and $$ (x_2, y_2) $$, use the slope formula:

$$
m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
$$

**Given Points:**
- $$ (x_1, y_1) = (-5, 4) $$
- $$ (x_2, y_2) = (1, 4) $$

**Calculate the Slope:**
$$
m = \frac{4 - 4}{1 - (-5)} = \frac{0}{6} = 0
$$

Since the slope is $$ 0 $$, the line is **horizontal**.

**Answer for Part (A):**

**A. $$ m = 0 $$**
**A. $$ m = 0 $$**
