Answer:The slope is -3 or -3/1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope you have to find the difference in the y values then divide it by the difference in the x values.

4-(-2)= 6

-1-1=-2

6/-2= -3

Answer:

x=-2.25,y=-2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is

$4x - y = - 9 \\ 3x - 3y = 0$

We want to solve the system for x and y that makes the system true.

Let us multiply the first equation by 3 while maintaining the second equation:

$12x -3 y = - 27 \\ 3x - 3y = 0$

Subtract the current second equation from the first one.

$12x = - 27$

Divide through by 12:

$x = - \frac{27}{12} = - 2.25$

From the second equation we have:

$3x = 3y$

This implies that:

$x = y = - 2.25$
