Slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x 1

-3 - 3 = -6
2 - 0 = 2

-6/2 = -3

m (slope) = -3

Answer:

-3

Explanation:

As included in the image you put, slope is rise over run or y2-y1/x2-x1.

y2-y1/x2-x1

we'll replace x and y with the coordinate points given

-3 - 3/2-0

-6/2 simplify

-3/1

slope is -3/1 or -3.
