Please find below the given equation-

y + 2 = -2 ( x - 3 )

y + 2 = -2 x - 2(- 3)

y + 2 = -2 x + 6

y = -2 x + 6 - 2

y = -2 x + 4

Let's compare this equation with the form y = mx +c

By comparing we get,

m = -2 and c = 4

We know, in y = mx + c , slope of the line is given by m

Here m = -2, as discussed above

Therefore the slope of the given line is -2

Hope it helps ..!!
