"graph the line containing the given pair of points and find the slope (0,3),(-1,-3)"

Start in the middle at the "origin"
- go up 3 and put a point, that is (0,3)
Start in the middle again
- go left one and down 3, that is (-1,-3)

Now to find the slope, using the graph
- start at the point (-1,-3) and go to (0,3)

How many did you move up? (rise)
put that over:
How many you went over (run)

Slope is 6/1 or 6
You could also use the slope formula if you know that.
