Answer: y=-1/3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation that contains the given point and has the same slope, we can plug it into slope-intercept form to find the y-intercept.

3=-1/3(-6)+b [multiply]

3=2+b [subtract both sides by 2]

b=1

Now that we know the y-intercept, we know that the equation is y=-1/3x+1.

What is the slope of the line in the graph?<br> -4/3 <br> -3/4<br> 3/4<br> 4/3

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

there's no graphed pictured. but slope is rise/ run so just count the boxes between the points on the line. Up and down is the numerator and sideways is the denominator. If its decreasing from left to right it's negative, and if it's increasing left to right then it's positive
