To find the slope (steepness, not height) of a line when given two points, do the following:
Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1),
where (x1, y1) is one point, and (x2,y2) is the second point.

Points: (x, y) and (x2, y2) Slope = y2-y divided by x2-x
To find the slope of a line passing through a given pair of points is found by using the point slope formula. Y(2)-Y(1) over x(2) -x(1).
Use the equation; y=mx+b where m is the slope Use your 2 points as y and b (intercept)
It's not possible because the given points would be a vertical line parallel to the y axis
