Rene Decartes is the father of Analytical Geometry. He was a French Mathematician and theologian who is believed to have discovered the slope formula according to many experts. He was said to have provided a method to solve the problem of lines and slopes in mathematics by his prowess in Algebra and Geometry.The basic slope formula is y=mx+b while the more complex point-slope formula is y-yl=m(x-x1).
......y2-y1 m= -------- ......x2-x1 m being slope ignore the periods they are nessicary

Renee Descartes discovered the slope intercept formula: y=mx+b
It was the French mathematician Rene Descartes.
slope = (delta y) / (delta x). That's shorthand for: slope = (difference in the y-coordinates) / (difference in the x-coordinates). For two given points with coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope is (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2).
Given a straight line with slope m and a point (p,q) on the line, the point-slope formula of the line is (y - q) = m(x - p) It is used to represent a straight line in the Cartesian plane. This allows techniques of algebra to be used in solving problems in geometry.
