◉ Slope. Answer: Rise / Run
(y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
Ex: Find the slope of the line that runs through the points (4,6) and
(8,10).
(10 - 6) / (8 - 4) = = 1
The line has a slope of 1
Remember: Positive slope inclines (travels upward) from left to right
and negative slope declines (travels downward) from left to right.
