Answer:

-2/3

Explanation:

Since slope is just rise over run, find the y intercept and see how far it is from the x axis. If it goes down and is above \the x axis, then it is negative and if it is under the x axis, then it is positive. Then count how far the x intercept is. Same concept as the y intercept. Then, you put it as a fraction (y goes on top of x) and simplify to get your slope.
