Answer:

$-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the change in the line, it is also called; $\frac{rise}{run}$ . The equation to find the slope of a line is;

$\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Substitute in the given points;

( 2, 6 ) and ( 8, 3 )

$\frac{3 - 6}{8 - 2}$

Simplify,

$\frac{-3}{6}$

$-\frac{1}{2}$
