Very easy

just know one concept

slope= (Y1-Y2)/ (x1-x2)

so plug it in

So

3–3 (thats two negatives, – -= +)

—— = 6/-1 = slope is -6

-1-0

Y2-Y1

——— = Use the corect formula

X2- X1

3- -3

——– = Plug in the values for the corresponding variables

-1-0

3+3

———- = A negative and a negative make a positive.

-1-0

6

—– = This is your slope. M=6/-1

-1

Therefore the slope has a rise of 6 and a run of -1.

Formula given to you is correct; math is not

y2-y1/x2-x1 note: either point can be x1,y1 with other being x2,y2

(-3-3) / (0- (-1)) = -6 / 1 or slope of -6

Hope this explains how to get the correct answer.
