How do you mean by sutstitution method?
if you have two points A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2), then the slope of the line going through this two points is
y2 - y1
------- = m
x2 - x2
to find the equation of the line going through this two points:
y - y1 = m(x - x1) which you will be able to reduce to an ecuation of the form
ux + vy + w = 0
If you want to find the slope of a tangent on a curve in a point on that curve you have to calculate the DERIVATIVE of the curve in that point. The value of it is equal to m.
