2. Find the slope of the line by counting the change in y and the change in x. (Remember, slope is rise over run).

Actually check again, the line is POSITIVE
OpenStudy (anonymous):
would this simply into -3?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it would be 6/2 which simplifies into pos 3?
OpenStudy (luigi0210):
You have the coordinates of: (-3, 0) and (3, 2)
\[\LARGE m=\frac{2-0}{3-(-3)}=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\]
OpenStudy (lncognlto):
Yep, that looks correct to me, Luigi.

OpenStudy (luigi0210):
Sadly, yes .-.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Woow, I feel so stupid lmao
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Wait, but how was i wrong tho.
OpenStudy (luigi0210):
You guys were doing it the opposite way, you did run/rise
The units for each were correct, but just in the wrong order.
