• Coordinates (x, y)
• Slope Formula:
  `\displaystyle m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (2, 4)

Point (4, 6)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:
   `\displaystyle m=(6-4)/(4-2)`
2. [Fraction] Subtract:
   `\displaystyle m=(2)/(2)`
3. [Fraction] Divide:
   `\displaystyle m=1`
