• Slope Formula:
  `\displaystyle m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (0, 0)

Point (1, -2)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [SF]:
   `\displaystyle m=(-2-0)/(1-0)`
2. [Fraction] Subtract:
   `\displaystyle m=(-2)/(1)`
3. [Fraction] Divide:
   `\displaystyle m=-2`
