Answer:

slope = -0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the slope of a line given the coordinates of two points, we can use the following formula:

[tex]\boxed{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}[/tex],

where:

m ⇒ slope

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] , [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] ⇒ known coordinates.

Substituting values into the formula:

[tex]{m = \frac{0 - 3}{0 - (-4)}}[/tex]

  ⇒ [tex]-\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

  ⇒ [tex]\bf -0.75[/tex]

∴ The slope of the line is -0.75.
