Answer:

m = slope

(x_1, y_1) = coordinates of first point in the line

(x_2, y_2) = coordinates of second point in the line

Slope describes the steepness of a line. The slope of any line remains constant along the line. The slope can also tell you information about the direction of the line on the coordinate plane. Slope can be calculated either by looking at the graph of a line or by using the coordinates of any two points on a line
