Question

What is the slope of a line that goes through (-3,-2) and (3,0)

Answer 1

Slope is ⅓

Explanation:

`{ \tt{slope = (y_(2) - y _(1) )/(x _(2) - x_(1)) }} \\`

• y_1 is -2
• y_2 is 0
• x_1 is -3
• x_2 is 3

`{ \tt{slope = \frac{0 - ( {}^( - ) 2)}{3 - ( {}^( - )3) } }} \\ \\ { \tt{slope = (2)/(6) }} \\ \\ { \tt{slope = (1)/(3) }}`
