From here you can mute participants as they join your call or make Zoom play a sound when someone comes in or leaves.Click the "manage participants" button on the bottom of the video screen.

You can always stop video or mute yourself later. Zoom now opens a small window called Join Meeting.On it, fill the 'Meeting ID or Personal Link Name' with the ID of the Zoom meeting that you want to attend (the one you received in the Zoom meeting invitation). If you see "start video," click that, too, just make sure you're ready for people to see you.Make sure you're unmuted by selecting the box in the bottom left corner of the window.Check the box that says "automatically join audio by computer when joining a meeting" so you can skip one step next time you want to get on a Zoom call.A dialogue box will pop up and give you the options to "join with computer audio," or "test speaker and microphone." Run those tests to make sure your microphone and speakers work properly.
