Answer:

m=0

Explanation:

the slope (m) can be calculated from two points with the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

we are given the points (-2,1) and (7,1)

label the points:

x1=-2

y1=1

x2=7

y2=1

now substitute into the equation

m=(1-1)/(7--2)

m=0/9

m=0

the slope of the line is 0

Hope this helps!
