Question
Graph the line containing the given pair of points and find the slope
(1,0) , (-5, -3)
-3-0/-5-1 + -3/4 so the slope would be M=-3/4 but how do you graph -3/4? Am I looking at this correctly.

I disagree with your math. Isn't -5-1=-6? m=-3/-6= 1/2
Now, graphing the line. mark this point on a graph paper (1,0). Now mark this point (-5,-3). Put ruler on the graph paper such that the edge touches each point. Draw the connecting line.
