ANSWER
EXPLANATION
We can use any two points to determine the slope.
The line passes through;
(-3,1) and (-5,5).
The slope is given by
This implies that;
We can now find the equation using the formula;
Expand:

Answer:
slope = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 3) ← 2 points on the line
m = =
= - 3
