Question

What is the line's slope?

Answer 1

Answer:

$m=\frac{-1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m:

Points (0, -1) and (-3, 0)

$m=\frac{0-(-1)}{-3-0}$

$m=\frac{0+1}{-3}$

$m=\frac{1}{-3}$

$m=\frac{-1}{3}$
