Start at the y-intercept of 3 on the coordinate system.

Remember, when choosing points, chose clear

cut points where the line crosses them.

The next put is on the x-intercept and it's 2.

To get from (0,3) to (2,0), we go down 3 units and run 2 units.

Since our slope is going down, it's negative.

So the slope is -3/2.

Answer:

The answer is option A

Slope of the line using points

( 2,0) and (0, 3)

Slope = 3 - 0 / 0 - 2 = -3/2

Hope this helps
