Since the slope is falling, instead of rising, it would be negative.
Now, on the line, I plotted (0, 2) and (-2, 10).
You would now plug this into the rise/run formula.
The formula is
The equation would become,
= 
= -4
I believe the answer would be -4.
I hope this helps!

You have the right idea and you are close to the correct answer. However that's not what your teacher is looking for in terms of steps.
The starting inequality is
She starts off selling 8 buckets. Then she sells b more to get a total of b+8
This total must be 20 or larger which is why I set b+8 greater than or equal to 20
Solve for b by subtracting 8 from both sides
So she needs to sell at least 12 more buckets to reach her goal
If you graphed this on a number line, then you would draw a closed circle at 12. Then shade to the right of the close circle.
