To find slope, use the equation:
slope = \frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}<span>
<span>where x_{2} and y_{2} are the x and y values of one coordinate point, and x_{1} and y_{1} are the x and y values of another coordinate point . Since we are given two coordinate points, that means we can find the slope using the slope equation.

</span></span>

Let's choose (6, 0) as your (x_{2},&#10;y_{2}) point and (0, -2) as your (x_{1}, y_{1}) point, but you can switch those if you want! That makes x_{2} = 6, y_{2} = 0 and x_{1} = 0, y_{1} = -2. Plug these values into the slope equation and simplify:

\frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\&#10; = \frac{ 0 - (-2) }{6-0} \\&#10; = \frac{2}{6} \\&#10;=  \frac{1}{3}

Answer: Slope = \frac{1}{3}
