Step 1.2.1.1.1

Multiply $- 1$ by $0$ .

$- \frac{1}{3} = \frac{y + 0}{1 - 0}$

Step 1.2.1.1.2

Add $y$ and $0$ .

$- \frac{1}{3} = \frac{y}{1 - 0}$

Step 1.2.1.2

Simplify the denominator.

Step 1.2.1.2.1

Multiply $- 1$ by $0$ .

$- \frac{1}{3} = \frac{y}{1 + 0}$

Step 1.2.1.2.2

Add $1$ and $0$ .

$- \frac{1}{3} = \frac{y}{1}$

Step 1.2.1.3

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$- \frac{1}{3} = y$

Step 1.3

Rewrite the equation as $y = - \frac{1}{3}$ .

$y = - \frac{1}{3}$

Step 2

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is $0$ .

$m = 0$
