(-3, 1)
(3, 3)


I apparently can’t add more then one photo but can someone help and see what I did wrong. This is so hard and i can’t do it.

The run (x) is 3 - (-3) = 6

The rise (y) is 3 - 1 = 2

So the slope of a line is rise over run, so in this case
(2)/(6).

But you're not done there since you can simplify it, so your final answer would be:


(1)/(3)
