  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Reading a Cartesian plane
  • Slope Formula:
    \displaystyle m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph

Point (-3, 1)

Point (3, -3)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

  1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:
    \displaystyle m=(-3-1)/(3+3)
  2. [Fraction] Subtract/Add:
    \displaystyle m=(-4)/(6)
  3. [Fraction] Simplify:
    \displaystyle m=(-2)/(3)
