Hello!

Explanation:

Slope:
(Y^2-Y^1)/(X^2-X^1)=(rise)/(run)


((-3)-0=-3)/(6-3=3)=(-3)/(3)=-1

Therefore, the slope is -1.

Answer is -1.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc} &&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\ % (a,b) &&(~ 3 &,& 0~) % (c,d) &&(~ 6 &,& -3~) \end{array} \\\\\\ % slope = m slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-3-0}{6-3}\implies \cfrac{-3}{3}\implies -1
