You can put this solution on YOUR website!
find the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2, 0) and (-5, -1)
The formula you use is:
m=%28Y2-Y1%29%2F%28X2-X1%29
m=slope
m=%28-1-0%29%2F%28-5-%28-2%29%29
m=%28-1%29%2F%28-3%29
m=1%2F3
graph+%28400%2C400%2C+-6%2C6%2C-6%2C6%2C%281%2F3%29x%2B2%2F3%29
