Answer:

Yes, but can be simplified to
-(1)/(4)

Explanation:

Since slope is the formula to determine the equation of a line, we use,


(rise)/(run)

In this sense, we can see that the rise is -2

The run, or how far along the x-axis the line goes until it reaches its desired point is 8.

Although you are correct in the
-(2)/(8), don't forget to use your GCF to determine how low the fraction can go. (GCF or greatest common factor of 2 in this case) to get
-(1)/(4)

I hope this answer finds you well, and I would be happy to help you again in the future! :D
