Explanation:

Step1: Identify two points on the line

From the graph, we can take two points, say $(0, 2)$ and $(2,0)$.

Step2: Use slope - formula

The slope formula is $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$. Let $(x_1,y_1)=(0,2)$ and $(x_2,y_2)=(2,0)$. Then $m=\frac{0 - 2}{2-0}$.

Step3: Simplify the expression

$m=\frac{-2}{2}=- 1$.

Answer:

$-1$
