The slope is -3, which indicates the line descends as it moves from left to right.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, resulting in an upward slant from left to right.

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, resulting in a downward slant from left to right.

What is the rise/run method for finding slope?

Back

The rise/run method involves counting the vertical change (rise) and the horizontal change (run) between two points on the line.
