Take any two points whose x coordinates are different.Suppose they are P = (Xp, Yp) and Q = (Xq, Yq)
then slope = (Yp - Yq)/(Xp - Xq) = (Yq - Yp)/(Xq - Xp), that is the change in the y coordinate between the two points ("rise") divided by the change in the x coordinate between the points - taken in the same order ("run").

SteveFor a straight line, you calculate delta-y divided by delta-x (in other words, difference in y-coordinates, divided by difference in x-coordinates), for two different pointsFor an arbitrary curve, you calculate the derivative. This basically means that you analyze what happens if you choose two points that get closer and closer together.

Calculate slope as slope=(y2-y1)/(t2-t1).
How do you calculate slope in science?
slope = rise divided by run
What is the formula used to calculate slope?

What happens when you try to calculate the slope of a vertical line?
You cannot: the slope is not defined.

How do you find the slope of a parallel line?
Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you know the slope of a line in question, or you can calculate it, then you know the slope of any line parallel to that line.
How do you calculate slope of 5-4 -21?
I am not sure what you mean; I guess some symbols disappeared when posting the question. I assume you have two given points. The idea is to calculate the slope as: slope = (difference in y-coordinates) / (difference in x-coordinates)
