Answer:

0

Explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(2-2)/(3-(-7))

m=0/(3+7)

m=0/10

m=0

Slope Formula:
\displaystyle m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify.

Point (-7, 2)

Point (3, 2)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m.

  1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:
    \displaystyle m = (2 - 2)/(3 - -7)
  2. [Order of Operations] Evaluate:
    \displaystyle m = 0
