The slope = -.2

Explanation:

The equation is in the y intercept form # y = mx + b#

m = slope. (think m mountain ski slope)

b = y intercept ( think b beginning starting on the y axis.)

In this equation

# y = -0.2 x + - 0.1#

So m = -0.2

The slope is -0.2

This means that the line goes down on the y axis .2 points while the line goes one to the right on the x axis
