FIELD NOTE / 020
Slope measures how much y changes when x changes.
The formula is (y2 − y1) ÷ (x2 − x1), often remembered as rise over run. The graph plots both points, the walkthrough substitutes their coordinates into the formula, and the result includes the equation of the line when the line is not vertical.
