Answer:

a. 0

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD 1:

The formula of a slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have two points (4, 2) and (-2, 2).

Substitute:

[tex]m=\dfrac{2-2}{-2-4}=\dfrac{0}{-6}=0[/tex]

METHOD 2:

The second coordintes of the points are the same (4, 2), (-2, 2).

Therefore, we conclude that it is a horizontal line.

The horizontal line has a slope of 0.

Therefore your answer is a. 0
