Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 6, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 9) ← 2 points on the line

m =
`(-9-3)/(3+6)` =
`(-12)/(9)` = -
`(4)/(3)` → A

Answer 2

A ) -4/3

how to calculate slope-

(Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1)
