Answer 3

@satellite73 help

Answer 4

you looking for the slope between the two poins \((-3,4) (-2,1) \)?

Answer 5

form(-3\) to \(-2\) is one unit to the right on the \(x\) axis
from \(4\) to \(1\) is \(3\) units down
over 1, down 3, slope is \(-3\)

Answer 6

@satellite73 yes i have to find its \[\frac{ rise }{ run }\]

Answer 7

or you can compute
\[\frac{4-1}{-3-(-2)}=\frac{3}{-1}=-3\] either way

Answer 8

"rise" is \(-3\) and "run" is \(1\) so \(\frac{rise}{run}=-3\)

Answer 9
