Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a vertical line straight thru the point on the line (-3,1). Then draw a horizontal line straight thru the point (-1, -5). You'll see a triangle form. This is called a slope triangle. Calculate the slope by counting the units for the height and width of the triangle. The height is -6 and the width is 2. The slope is -6/2 = -3. The slope is negative since the line slants down from left to right.

Answer:

The slope is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points (-3,1) and (-1, -5)

We can use the formula for slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-5-1)/(-1--3)

   = (-5-1)/(-1+3)

   =-6/2

   =-3
