Question

Find the slope of the line shown in the graph. On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, negative 1) and (3, 0). a. 3 c. Negative one-third b. -1 d. One-third Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answer 1

The slope is
`(-1)/(3)`

Explanation:

From the two points (0,-1) (3,0). The y values are 0 and -1. The x values are 3 and 0. The slope is the change in y over the change in x. You find the change by subtracting.

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