Check the picture below, so the parabola looks more or less like so, hmmm with a vertex at (-1 , -4), so, using those values from the table

We start with 12/20. Half both numbers = 6/10. Half again = 3/5.
Because 3/5 are both odd numbers and can't be made smaller without using decimals (which you don't want to use within a fraction), 3/5 is the simplest form for this fraction.
A function in math is a relationship or expression involving one or more variables.
Answer:
slope = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Rearrange eqn into slope intercept form
slope intercept form: y = mx + b
where...
m = the slope
b = the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y axis)
3x + y = 12
y = -3x+12
2) Know parallel rule. A line that runs parallel has the same slope but a different y-intercept
So the slope is: -3
The integers or -3, -2, -1,0, and 1
