Question

What is the slope of the line that contains the points (-3,-1) and (3,3)?

A. Undefined
B. 0
C. 2/3
D. 3/2

Answer 1

C. 2/3

Explanation:

Slope = rise/run or (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Points (-3,-1) and (3,3)

We see the y increase by 4 and the x increase by 6, so the slope is

m = 4/6 = 2/3

So, the answer is C. 2/3
