The function y = 2/17x has a slope = -2/17x2 so that for each value of x (other than zero) it has a different slope.

Near x = zero its slope approaches + or - infinity, while for large x it approaches zero.

What can the slope of a straight line be measured by?

The slope of a straight line can't be measured in units. If it is a horizontal line then there is no slope because the rise over run is 0/x, which equals zero because zero divided by everything is zero. If the line is vertical then the slope is undefined because the rise over run is x/o.
