What is a slope on a wave?

The change in y over the change in x. Y is a vertical axis, while x is a horizontal axis. Change in means you find the diference of the values for either the y or x values, which are obtained from their point on the graph. Ex] (x1,y1) (x2,y2) slope=. It is rise over run.
