Answer

$m=-\frac{3}{4}$

Work Step by Step

To find slope, we use the slope formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ We plug in the values for $x$ and $y$: $m=\frac{0-3}{4-0}$ We simplify the expression using the order of operations: First, we simplify above and below the fraction bar by subtracting: $m=\frac{-3}{4}$ Then, we move the negative sign out front: $m=-\frac{3}{4}$
