The slope of the line is -2/3.

This is found by using the equation y2 - y1/x2 - x1. Filling in for each factor, you would have 1-3/1+2 (since subtracting a negative makes it positive). This will give you a final answer of -2/3.

Here is a graph of the full equation of the line.

I hope this helps!
