Slope is change in y divided by change in x. Use the same point order in both differences. A vertical line has no defined slope in this form.

Worked example

From (1, 2) to (4, 8), slope = (8 - 2) / (4 - 1) = 2.

From (1, 2) to (4, 8), slope = (8 - 2) / (4 - 1) = 2.
Worked model: From (1, 2) to (4, 8), slope = (8 - 2) / (4 - 1) = 2.
