To find the slope of the line passing through two points, you can use the formula:
slope = (change in y) / (change in x) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
For the points (-3, 3) and (2, -3), let's label them (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) respectively:
x1 = -3, y1 = 3
x2 = 2, y2 = -3
Now, apply the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-3 - 3) / (2 - (-3))
slope = (-3 - 3) / (2 + 3)
slope = (-6) / (5)
So the slope of the line is -6/5.
