Slope
The slope of a line (or between two points) is a ratio or fraction
The math way of describing it is the change in y over the change in x
We can use the shortcut:
runrise
3

Slope and Two Points
When given two points, you can find the slope between them using this formula:
m=x2−x1y2−y1
Ex: (-2,0) and (1,5)
