Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify two points on the line.

Two points that are clearly on the line are (0,3) and (3,0).

Step 2: Calculate the slope.

The slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ is given by the formula: $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Using the points (0,3) and (3,0), we have: $m = \frac{0 - 3}{3 - 0} = \frac{-3}{3} = -1$

Final Answer
