hi

Slope is 2 .

here is how you do the trick : by reading on the graph

if you go forward of 1 on the X axis , how much did the line goes up or down ?

Here at 0 on X- axis, we are at 0 on the Y- axis.

If you go forward of 1 on X axis, you are at 2 on Y axis.

So the slope is + 2

Other technique by calculus between two points.

Take two diffents point on the X axis. Call them A and B

Slope is : ( f(A) -f(B) ) / A-B

exemple here : we have two easy points . Take 0 as A and 1 as B

We read on the graph :

A = 0 and B = 1

f(A)= 0 and f(B) = 2

Now we apply formula :

( f(A) -f(B) ) / (A-B )

(0 -2 ) / (0-1) = -2/-1 = 2

Slope is 2

Easy, dont you think ?
