Answer:

Slope = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula:

[tex] \frac{y2}{x2} - \frac{y1}{x1} = m[/tex]

m = slope.

Substitute the point values given into the formula:

[tex] \frac{2}{2} - \frac{8}{0} = ?[/tex]

Solve:

[tex] \frac{2}{2} - \frac{8}{0} = \frac{ - 6}{2} = - 3[/tex]

The slope of your line is -3.
