Answer: Slope means the gradient. So find the equation of the line first then graph the points on the graph.

Explanation:

y=mx+c *We want m*

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(0-1)/(6-3)

m=-1/3

y=-1/3x+2 *(0,2) co-ordinate means it's the y-intercept=c*

I think the slope is -1/3 and then just plt the points on the graph manually.
