\bf \begin{array}{lllll} &x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\ % (a,b) A&({{ 4}}\quad ,&{{ 6}})\quad % (c,d) B&({{ -8}}\quad ,&{{ -3}}) \end{array} \\\\\\ % slope = m slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{-3-6}{-8-4}\implies \cfrac{-9}{-12}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}
