Question

How do you find the slope of (10, 0) and (0, 3)?

Answer 1

In general, for any two points `(x_1,y_1) and (X_2,y_2)` the slope is defined as:
`color(white)("XXXXX")` `("the change in "y)/("the change in "x)`
or
`(Delta y)/(Delta x) = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

For the given points `(10,0) and (0,3)`
this becomes
slope `= (3-0)/(0-10) = -3/10`
