Answer:

The answer to your question is letter D

Explanation:

Process

1.- Find two points in of line

Point A (-5, 3)

Point B (3, -3)

2.- Find the slope using the formula


m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Where

x₁ = -5 y₁ = 3

x₂ = 3 y₂ = -3

Substitution


m = (-3 - 3)/(3 + 5)

Simplification


m = (-3)/(4)
