to get the slope of any straight line, we simply need two points off of it, let's use those two in the picture below.


(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-3}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-3}-\stackrel{y1}{0}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{3}-\underset{x_1}{2}}} \implies \cfrac{ -3 }{ 1 } \implies \text{\LARGE - 3}
