how can you find a slope? using the coordinates (4,1) and (2,5)?
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Slope is the change in y divided by the change in x.
\n" ); document.write( "y: 1-5 = -4
\n" ); document.write( "x: 4-2 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "slope, m = -4/2 = -2
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Sometimes it's called rise over run.
