 Slope describes the steepness of line in a coordinate plane.

 You can find the slope of a line by subtracting the coordinates of any two points on a line.

 The person that invented the slope formula was Rene Descartes.  The formula for slope is Y2-Y2  X1-X2

 A slope is like a hill or mountain if u go up a hill that is the positive slope. If you go down the hill that is the negative slope.

 The direction of the slant of a line indicates a positive or negative slope.

 You can use slope to find the steepness of a ramp. The steepness of a ramp is the ratio to the vertical change to the horizontal change. In math, slope is a number that describes the steepness of a line.

 The Slope is represented by the variable of “m” 2x+m=8
