How do you find the slope of the line passing through these given points?
(2,5) and (3,6).
Slope m = diffy/diffx
m = (6-5)/(3-2)
m = 1
----------
(6,1) and (-6,1)
Same as #1
-----------
(4,6) and (4,8)
diffx = 0 --> slope is undefined

----
slope = (change in y)/(corresponding change in x)
-----
Example using (3,6) (6,1)
---
slope = (1-6)/(6-3) = -5/3
