Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two line points

Points: $(0, -2)$ and $(-4, 0)$

Step2: Apply slope formula

Slope formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ Substitute values: $m=\frac{0-(-2)}{-4-0}=\frac{2}{-4}$

Step3: Simplify the fraction

$m=\frac{2}{-4}=-\frac{1}{2}$

Answer:

$-\frac{1}{2}$

(For the rise/run segments: From point $(0, -2)$, draw a vertical segment up 2 units (rise) and a horizontal segment left 4 units (run), or down 2 units and right 4 units, to connect to another point on the line.)
