y=mx+b, b is your y-intercept and m is your slope which is rise over run.
The formula to find the slope of a line is, run over rise in other words, Y2 - Y1 over X2 - X1 then u simplify.
The equation for slope = rise / run
Rise/run is the slope of a line.
The rise is the difference between the ordinates (vertical values) of two points on a line whereas the run is the difference between their abscissae (horizontal values) of the same two points.
