Answer
The slope of this line is $2$.
Work Step by Step
To find the slope of this graph, we need to locate two points on the line.
We have one point located at $(3, 1)$ and another, the y-intercept, at $(0, -5)$. Now that we have the two points, we can plug them into the slope formula where $m$ stands for "slope":
$m = \dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$
Let us plug in the points we found into this formula:
$m = \dfrac{-5 - 1}{0 - 3}$
$m = \dfrac{-6}{-3}$
$m = 2$
The slope of this line is $2$.
