Slope of a line,given 2 points can be found by (Diff of y co-ordinates)/(Diff of x-co-ords)
In this case -2 -(-2)= -2 +2 = 0
Which means that the slope = 0 This implies that the 2 points are not joined by a straight line.

Slope is the rise over the run, or the change in y divided by the change in x.

As a formula, you may be familiar with this:

The slope in this case is =
