Answer:

4/3

Explanation:

You can solve this equation in two ways.

1) Count the ratio of rise to run:

You're going up 4 spaces and going to the left three spaces. Therefore, the slope would be 4/3. It would also be positive because it's going up. Think of it like going up a mountain.

2) The second way is by using the formula:

y2-y1/x2-x1

Then fit in the missing digits.

-3-1= -4 and -3-0= -3. Since both numbers are negative and a negative divided by a negative is a positive number, your answer would be a positive 4/3.
