• Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-4, -1)

Point (1, 4)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute [SF]:                    $\displaystyle m=\frac{4+1}{1+4}$
2. Add:                                     $\displaystyle m=\frac{5}{5}$
3. Divide:                                 $\displaystyle m=1$
