-- Measure how far the slope rises in 100-ft of horizontal distance.

-- That number is the percent of slope, or the "grade".

-- If you want the angle of the slope, divide the number by 100, and look up
the "arctangent" of the answer in a table or on a calculator.

How do you find x with two points and a slope?

The slope is usually derived from the equation y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Slope: m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) As for finding intercepts, for finding the y intercept, look for the b in the equation or make x = 0, for x-intercepts, make y = 0.
