Slope is the characteristic of a line that gives the relationship between the position of one point on the line and the next point. If given two points it can be found using the formula y sub 2 - y sub 1 over x sub 2 - x sub 1. If you are given an equation in slope intercept form the slope is the value of m. If your are given an equation in standard form the slope is -a/b.

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line describes its steepness, incline, or grade. A higher slope value indicates a steeper incline.
