HELP PLEASE!!! NEED FAST ANWER!!

Answer 1

Answer:

$-\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to identify the slope of a line which is described as:

'down 3 and right 5'

We know that a straight line which is sloping downwards from left to right has  a negative slope.

And a straight line which goes upwards from left to right side has a positive slope.

According to the describe slope of a line, it goes 3 units down and 5 units right so it makes a negative slope which is equal to $-\frac{3}{5}$.

Answer 2

Answer: second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation  of the line in slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope of the line and b the y-intercept.

We know that we can calculate the slope with:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Therefore, keeping the above on mind, you have that:

- If the line moves upward from the left to right, then the slope is positive.

-  If the line moves down from the left to right, then the slope is negative.

Then, if the slope described moves 3 units down and 5 units to the right, the it is negative. Therefore:

$m=-\frac{3}{5}$
