Question

Find the slope in the graph with the coordinates -3x,3 and 1,-5

A.2
B.-1/2
C.-2
D.1/2
Is the answer A??? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

If that's (-3,3) instead of (-3x,3), then the slope is -2.

m (slope) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (-5 - 3) / (1 - (-3))
m = -8 / (1 + 3)
m = -8 / 4
m = -2
