The slope of the linear function shown is of -1/3.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
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 <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>.
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.

Answer:
z = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
3 (z + 7) = 21
3z + 21 = 21
3z = 0
z = 0
The form f(x) = a(bx) equals a. The initial value of the function f(x) = a(bx) is always a. This is due to the fact that an is not reliant on x. As a result, if x changes, bx will change as well, but a will not.
