• Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-3, 2)

Point (-6, -4)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m.

1. Substitute [SF]:                     $m=\frac{-4-2}{-6+3}$
2. Subtract/Add:                       $m=\frac{-6}{-3}$
3. Divide:                                  $m=2$
