Negative Slope<span>. </span>If<span> a line has a </span>positive slope<span> (i.e. m > 0 ), then y always increases when x increases and y always decreases when x decreases. Thus, the </span>graph<span> of the line starts at the bottom left and goes towards the top right. Thus, as x increases by 3 , y decreases by 4 , and as x decreases by 3 , y increases by 4 .

0.248 rounded to the nearest tenth is 0.2 because 4 comes after and if there is a number after the number that you are rounding that is less than 5, you keep the number and do not change it.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>Equation of line in slope y-intercept form:</h2>

![\sf y - [-3] = \dfrac{1}{2}(x - 2)\\\\y + 3 = \dfrac{1}{2}x - 2*\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\y + 3 = \dfrac{1}{2}x-1\\\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csf%20y%20-%20%5B-3%5D%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%28x%20-%202%29%5C%5C%5C%5Cy%20%2B%203%20%3D%20%20%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7Dx%20-%202%2A%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cy%20%2B%203%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7Dx-1%5C%5C%5C%5C)
