Addison Stevenson · Answer 1

Y=-x-3 slope = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To first find the gradient u have to subtract the y intercepts and the x intercepts

3--3/-4-2

=6/-6=-1

Y-3/x--4=-1

Y-3=-1 (x+4)

Y-3=-x+-4

Y=-x-4+3

Y=-x-3

Slope=-1

Amanda · Answer 2

Slope = - 1x OR - x

Step-by-step explanation:

rise over run: y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

= 3 - (-3) / - 4 - 2

= 6 / - 6

= - 1
