Slope of g (x) : ZERO. The slope of any horizontal line is zero, 0.

Slope of f (x) :

let's take the points ( -4, 7) and (-2, 5) from the table


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(5-7)/(-2-(-4))=(-2)/(-2+4)=(-2)/(2)=-1

Answer: The slope of g (x ) is zero since it is a horizontal line while the slope of f (x) is -1. The slope of g(x) i greater than the slope of f(x).
