You can do this by many method.
One is by Slope = ("rise")/("run")

Here you can find the slope by drawing a triangle with hypotenuse as the line.

The next method is by

"Slope" = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

where you can take any two coordinates from the line.

For e.g.

(x_1, y_1)=(1,2)

(x_2, y_2)=(4,3)

"Slope" = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) = (3-2)/(4-1) = 1/3

The next method is by

"slope" = tanQ

where Q is the angle between the line and X-axis.
