Note we're going to let , , , . This means that the two points and are the points (2,5) and (3,10)\r

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%28y%5B2%5D-y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D-x%5B1%5D%29\" Start with the slope formula.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%2810-5%29%2F%283-2%29\" Plug in \"y%5B2%5D=10\", \"y%5B1%5D=5\", \"x%5B2%5D=3\", and \"x%5B1%5D=2\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%285%29%2F%283-2%29\" Subtract \"5\" from \"10\" to get \"5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%285%29%2F%281%29\" Subtract \"2\" from \"3\" to get \"1\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"m=5\" Reduce\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the slope of the line that goes through the points and is \"m=5\"
