• Coordinates (x, y)
• Reading a Cartesian plane
• Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph

Point (-3, 1)

Point (3, -3)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:                                                            $\displaystyle m=\frac{-3-1}{3+3}$
2. [Fraction] Subtract/Add:                                                                                 $\displaystyle m=\frac{-4}{6}$
3. [Fraction] Simplify:                                                                                          $\displaystyle m=\frac{-2}{3}$
