Answer:

slope or m=0

y=-4

Explanation:

Use slope formula.


(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)


(4-4)/(3+4)=(0)/(12)

This means that slope or m=0

Then use points slope formula.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-4=0(x-4)

y-4=0

Add 4 to both sides.

y=-4

Hope this helps!

If not, I am sorry.

Answer:

slope = 0

Explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 4 )

m =
(4-4)/(3-(-2)) =
(0)/(3+2) =
(0)/(5) = 0
