Question

what are the slopes of the line passing through the point (3,0) and (0,0)?

Answer 1

the slope is 1/3

= rise over run

Answer 2

Each straight line has only one slope.

Given two points on the line with coordinates:

(x1, y1) and (x2, y2),

the slope m of the line can be determined using the formula:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Thus, if (x1, y1) = (3, 0) and (x2, y2) = (0, 0):

m = (0 - 0) / (3 - 0) = 0 / 3 = 0.

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (3, 0) and (0, 0) is 0. This means that this line is a horizontal line and it coincides with the x- axis.
