Answer:

m = 0

Explanation:

slope can be found using the following equation:

m (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Let:

(x₁ , y₁) = (-3 , -2)

(x₂ , y₂) = (1 , -2)

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (-2 - (-2))/(1 - (-3))

Simplify:

m = (-2 - (-2))/(1 - (-3)) = (-2 (+2))/(1 +3) = (-2 + 2)/(1 + 3)

m = (-2 + 2)/(1 + 3) = (0)/(4)

m = 0/4 = 0

The slope of the line is 0.
