By stretching a rubber band between two pegs on a geoboard, we can discover how to find the slope of a line. Sometimes we need to find the slope of a line between two points and we might not have a graph to count out the rise and the run. The slope formula states that slope is equal to y of the second point minus y of the first point over x of the second point minus x of the first point.
