Yes

Answer 11

okay now, look at the y axis, how high is the original point of the line across the x axis?

Answer 12

3?

Answer 13

yes, so if we do the rise over run equation which incase you don't remember is y2-y1 over x2-x1 so it will be a negative slope and a fraction...basically its -1 over 3 :)

Answer 14

Thanks :)

Answer 15

well both numbers will be negative...so its -1 over -3

Answer 16
