6543-64 3-22507Find the slope of the line.Slope = m =Enter your answer as an integer or as a reduced fraction in the form A/B.

Answer 1

The slope equation is given by:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_(_2)-x_1)`

To get the slope of the graph, we will pick two points along the line:

Let's pick the first point at (x, y) = (-6, 6)

Let's pick the second point at (x, y) = (0, -2)

We plug this into the slope equation, we have:

`\begin{gathered} m=(-2-6)/(0--6)=-(8)/(6) \\ m=-(4)/(3) \end{gathered}`

The slope (m) = -4/3
