A:
Answer:The slope is -3/2.Step-by-step explanation:Hint: slope formula:[tex]\displaystyle \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{rise}{run}[/tex][tex]\displaystyle \frac{0-(-6)}{(-4)-0}=\frac{6}{-4}=\frac{6\div2}{-4\div2}=\frac{3}{-2}=-\frac{3}{2}[/tex][tex]\Large \textnormal{Therefore, the slope is -3/2.}[/tex]
