Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the graph is how much the line is changing. In this case, every time your x increases by one, your y decreases by -5. This is the case no matter what value the -2 is.

the general equation for a straight line is

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, or the value of y when x is 0.
