Answer

The slope of the line = -1

Step-by-step explanation

The slope of a line is calculated by picking two different random points on the line with coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂)

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁)

So, for this question, if we take two random points on the line, from the graph sent, I'll pick points (-2, 2) and (-7, 7)

x₁ = -2

y₁ = 2

x₂ = -7

y₂ = 7

Slope = (7 - 2) ÷ (-7 - (-2))

= 5 ÷ (-7 + 2)

= 5 ÷ -5

= -1

Hope this Helps!!!
