• Slope Formula:
  `m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (-6, 6)

Point (6, 2)

Step 2: Find slope m

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

1. Substitute [SF]:
   `m=(2-6)/(6+6)`
2. Subtract/Add:
   `m=(-4)/(12)`
3. Simplify:
   `m=(-1)/(3)`
