the slope $m$ can be given through the relation

$(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=m$

You can assume any point to be $(x_1,y_1)$ and the other will be

$(x_2,y_2)$

$(x_1,y_1)=(-2,-32)$

$(x_2,y_2)=(6,0)$

$(0-(-32))/(6-(-2))=4$

The straight lines slope $(m)=4$

What is the slope of the line between (-2,-32) (-2,-32) and (6,0) (6,0) ?
