Question 79803
You probably have a whole list of exercises, and in each exercise, TWO points are given.  For each exercise, then , you are given only two points.  To find the slope, you must find the {{{(RISE)/(RUN) }}}, which can be found with this famous formula:
{{{m=(y[1]-y[2])/(x[1]-x[2]) }}}


According to this formula, to find the RISE, you must subtract the y coordinates, and to find the RUN, you must subtract the x coordinates.  Then just take the RISE OVER the RUN.  That will be the slope between the two points.
