Question

Does anybody know this? Find the slope of the line shown

Answer 1

The slope of the linear function shown is of -1/3.

What is a linear function?

A linear function, in slope-intercept formula, is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

• m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

• b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Given two points of a line, the slope is given by change in y divided by change in x.

In this problem, the line goes through points (-3,0) and (0,-1), hence the slope is given by:

m = (0 - (-1))/(-3 - 0) = 1/-3 = -1/3.
