1.Pick two points on the line and determine their coordinates.
2.Determine the difference in y-coordinates of these two points (rise).
3. Determine the difference in x-coordinates for these two points (run).
4. Divide the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates (rise/run or slope)

The slope is -2.

Slope is the change in y divided by the change in x between any two points on the line.
