Slope Between Two Points

Given two points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ , the slope m between these two points is $m={\frac {y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}}$ . That is, the slope between two points is the difference between the y-coordinates of the points, divided by the difference between the x-coordinates of the points.
