To find the slope of the line in the graph, we can use the formula for the slope $m$ between two points on the line:

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

From the image, we can identify two points where the line crosses grid intersections:

• Point 1: $(-4, 4)$
• Point 2: $(2, -2)$

Now, apply the slope formula:

$m = \frac{-2 - 4}{2 - (-4)} = \frac{-6}{6} = -1$

So, the slope of the line is $-1$.

Would you like more details or have any questions? Here are five related questions:

1. How does the slope change if the line were steeper or shallower?
2. What would the slope be if the line were horizontal?
3. How do you find the y-intercept of the line given the slope?
4. How would the equation of the line look in slope-intercept form?
5. How can you find the equation of a line if you know the slope and one point?

Tip: A negative slope means that the line is decreasing from left to right.
