To be able to determine the slope, let's identify at least two points that pass through the graph and use it in the following formula:


\text{ Slope (m) = }(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Let,

Point A: x1, y1 = -4, -4

Point B: x2, y2 = 4, -4

We get,


\text{ Slope (m) = }(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)
\text{ = }\frac{-4\text{ - (-4)}}{4\text{ - (-4)}}
\text{ = }\frac{-4\text{ + 4}}{4\text{ + 4}}
\text{ = }(0)/(8)\text{ = 0}
\text{ Slope (m) = 0}

Therefore, the slope of the line is 0.
