Slope: #0#

Explanation:

Slope formula: #m = (Y_2 - Y_1)/(X_2 - X_1)#

Let's identify the numbers in the points.

#(X_1, Y_1)# and #(X_2, Y_2)#
#(2, 2)# and #(4, 2)#

Now we can plug in the values into the formula.

#m = (2-2)/(4-2)#

#m = 0/2#

#m = 0#

The slope is #0#, meaning the line connecting the two points is a horizontal line.
