The slope of this line is -1/6.

2 Point: (6,2) (-6,6)
x₁ y₁ x₂ y₂


Remember:

rise change in y y₂ - y₁ 6 - 2 4
---------- = ------------------- = ------------- = ----------- = ----------
run change in x x₂ - x₁ -6 - 6 -12


Simplify 4/-12

4 ÷ 4 1
------- = ------------- = -1/3
-12 ÷ 4 -3

The slope of the line is -1/3.
