To graph a straight line passing through (5,-3) with slope -3, a second point is found on the line by starting at (5,-3) and going.
a. 5 up and 3 to left
b. 3 up and 1 to right\
c. 3 down and 3 to left
d. 3 down and 1 to right
---------------------
It's d. A slope of -3 is -3 of y (3 down) for each +1 of x (to the right).
