• Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (-3, 6)

Point (3, -6)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute [SF]:                   $m=\frac{-6-6}{3+3}$
2. Subtract/Add:                     $m=\frac{-12}{6}$
3. Divide:                                $m=-2$
