The approach depends on what you are using to start. Let's begin with the graphic approach.
The second approach is used when you have an equation with a y with no exponent and x with no exponent in it (if either have exponents, the graph will not exhibit a global slope):
If the points are: (4, 8) and (2, 4) Then the slope is: 8-4/4-2 = 4/2 = 2
To find the perpendicular bisector of a line segment, first, determine the midpoint of the segment by averaging the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the endpoints. Next, calculate the slope of the line segment and find the negative reciprocal of that slope to get the slope of the perpendicular bisector. Then, use the midpoint and the new slope to write the equation of the perpendicular bisector in point-slope form. Finally, you can convert it to slope-intercept form if needed.
The formula for finding the slope of the line is this: m = (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)
y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
The equation of slope intercept form is y=mx+b. This would be used in finding the slope of an object and is the most efficient way to date in doing so.
If the points are: (4, 8) and (2, 4) Then the slope is: 8-4/4-2 = 4/2 = 2
(-6,-5) (4,4)
It is not defined.
The answer depends on what information you have.
flattening of slope is generally a method of cutting the hill slope in the shape of steps. these steps being horizontal instead of slopey is better to check erosion.

In a mathmatical sense, slope is important for finding velocity or a change in behavior of something. The slope correlates to a positive or negatve depending on the angle.
The formula for finding the slope of the line is this: m = (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)
You can make a formula of finding the slope of an area buy first finding the equation of the line using: y - y1 = m ( x - x1 ).
y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
If the curve is on the xy-plane, finding an expression for dy/dx will give you the slope of a curve at a point.
The slope of a line is the same thing as the rate of change between two variables in a linear relationship.
