Determine the slope of the line that passes through each pair of points.
Graph the line with x intercept -3 and y intercept -2. Use a coordinate plane.
To determine the slope of a line passing through two points, you can use the formula:
Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's say we have two points, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). In this case, we need to find the equation of the line passing through the x-intercept -3 and y-intercept -2.
Since the x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis, its coordinates are (-3, 0). Similarly, the y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, and its coordinates are (0, -2).
Now we can use these coordinates to find the slope:
Slope (m) = (-2 - 0) / (0 - (-3))
= -2 / 3
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the x-intercept -3 and y-intercept -2 is -2/3.
To graph this line, you can start with the x-intercept (-3, 0) and the y-intercept (0, -2). Plot these two points on a coordinate plane. Then, using a ruler, draw a line passing through these two points. This line represents the equation you found, and it has a slope of -2/3.
