Slope is equal to the change in
y
over the change in
x
, or rise over run.
m
=
change in y
change in x
The change in
is equal to the difference in x-coordinates (also called run), and the change in
is equal to the difference in y-coordinates (also called rise).
Substitute in the values of
and
into the equation to find the slope.
