You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The formula for this is:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29\"$

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, plug in your values:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%282--3%29%2F%28-2--8%29\"$

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "That gives you:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5%2F6\"$

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, your slope is 5/6.

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-buildings \n" ); document.write( "
