They are both stating the same thing, and often can be used interchangeably. The difference is purely in the application, or use. If you are doing math calculations, you want a 'numerical' statement as in 2, in writing, often the alphabetical 'two' is better.

You can use 'two' in mathematics, but '2' is a shorthand method. Can you imagine trying to add

two Hundred twenty two + seventy two

instead of 222 + 72?

What is the slope of the line formed by these two points 2 3 and 4 2?

To find the slope we need to divide the difference in rise between these two points by the difference in run between them. The difference in rise equals: 3-2 = 1. The difference in run between these points equals: 2-4 = -2.Now we just divide 1/-2 and we get the slope of the line formed by these two points: -0.5
