The function we have is:
[tex]y=-6x-3[/tex]
To find the slope of the function we need to compare this equation with the general slope-intercept equation:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
Where "m" represents the slope, and "b" represents the y-intercept of the line.
As we can see, by comparing the slope-intercept equation and the given function, we find that
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=-6 \\ \text{and } \\ b=-3 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Since m represents the slope, we have found the answer. The slope is equal to -6.
Answer:
-6
