Slope:

Slope is define as steepness of the line and commonly know as rise over run . it defineas ratio of change in y with respect to x.

To figur out the slope :


m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)
\begin{gathered} \Delta y=y_2-y_1 \\ \Delta x=x_2-x_1 \end{gathered}

slope is:


\begin{gathered} m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} (x_1,y_1) \\ (x_2,y_2) \end{gathered}

Are point that is exist this line.
