Slope is the steepness (or not) of a line. The way you find slope is with the equation (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1) = M (M is the symbol used for slope). Now if you had the two points (2,3) and (4,1) the way you would find the slope between them is to take the two Y's 3 and 1 and put them on top of the equation. Then you would take the two X's 2 and 4 and put them on the bottom and the you would have (1-3)/(4-2). The order of the Y's and X's doesn't matter, so long as you don't mix them up. Then when you simplify the equation, your answer is -1, so the slope between those two points is -1. The only two situation where slope can be rather strange is when the line is either completely vertical or horizontal. In the case of a vertical, there is no slope, so you would put no solution. As for the horizontal, the slope is zero.
slopeintercept equations are used to find the slope and intercept (obviously lol) they are set up like this y=mx+b m is the slope and b is the y-intercept lets say you have an equation like... 2x + y = 5 (now minus 2x from both sides) 2x - 2x + y = 5 - 2x (simplify) y = 5 - 2x just use algebra to turn the standard form to slope intercept form
3/2 then you divid 3 and 2 add a 0 to the 2 bring the 6 to the top then simplify by 3 and get. 2

The formula to find the slope of a line is, run over rise in other words, Y2 - Y1 over X2 - X1 then u simplify.
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. So, since you know what your slope is, you substitute 5 in for m. I'm guessing that -1 is your x and -6 is your y so you substitute those in as well. This will give you -6=5(-1)+b. Then you simplify that to -1=b. So, your equation would be y=5x-1
To get the slope, you would have to do Y2-Y1 _____ X2-X1 or Rise ------ Run If you had two pairs of coordinates from a graph, the coordinates would be (X1, Y1) and (X2, Y2) For example, if you had the coordinate pairs (1,2) and (3,4) Your X1 would be 1, and your Y1 would be 2. So when you follow the equation Y2-Y1 _____ X2-X1 you would get 4-2 ----- 3-1 When you simplify, you would get 2/2 or 1. So your slope would be 1. Also, if you have an equation in Slope-Intercept Form, y=mx+b, your slope would be m. For example, if you had the equation y=3x+2, your slope would be 3.

No it will not simplify.

Slope is a noun (a slope) and a verb (to slope).
