Slope = -3

Explanation:

Slope =

\text{Hey there!}


\text{The formula should look like: m =\ }\bf{(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}


\text{y}_2=-3\\\\\text{y}_1=6\\\\\text{x}_2=2\\\\\text{x}_1=-1


(-3-6)/(2-(-1))


\text{-3 - 6 = -9}


(-9)/(2-(-1))


\text{2-(-1)=2 + 1 = 3}


(-9)/(3)=-9/3=-3


\boxed{\boxed{\text{Thus your answer/ slope is: -3}}}\checkmark


\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
