To find the slope of the line that contains the points (1, 2) and (5, 2), we can use the formula for the slope (m) given by:
\[
m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
\]
Here, \( (x_1, y_1) = (1, 2) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) = (5, 2) \).
Substituting the values:
\[
m = \frac{2 - 2}{5 - 1} = \frac{0}{4} = 0
\]
The slope of the line is \( 0 \), indicating that it is a horizontal line.
