Can someone please help me come up with a linear function that falls in the range -1< m < 0?

Answer 1

can my "m" or slope equal -0.2, -1/3, etc.?

Answer 2

Yes it can be whatever you want between that given range. For example, if the slope was -0.2, (or -1/5) then, your line would go down from left to right (because it's negative) and move down 1 every time you move 5 to the right (m= rise/run)

Hope that helps!

Answer 3

Yes that does help, thank you so much.
