Answer:

slope = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 2)

m = [tex]\frac{-2-1}{0+2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{2}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
