What is the slope of the line given by the equation? (Enter your answer as adecimal if necessary.)y=-2x-6

Given the following equation:
[tex]\text{ y = -2x - 6}[/tex]The given equation is already in standard Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b.
Where,
m = the slope of the line.
On the given equation, it appears that m = -2.
Therefore, the slope of the given equation is -2.
