Select two distinct values of X, designated X1 and X2, from the table, read the corresponding values Y1 and Y2 from the table, and calculate the slope from the formula: slope = (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1)
The table should give you a set of points. Take two coordinated pairs off the table and use the formula y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1 (rise over run) to get your slope. Then take the slope and one of your points and plug it into y = mx +b with m being the slope, and b as the y-intercept.

take two ordered pairs. then do difference of y's divided by difference of x's and that is your slope
Choose two distinct points from the table and designate their coordinates as x1, y1 and x2, y2. The slope of the line then will equal (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).
