Find the Slope (6,-6) , (2,-6)

$(6, - 6)$ , $(2, - 6)$

Slope is equal to the change in $y$ over the change in $x$ , or rise over run.

$m = \frac{change in y}{change in x}$

The change in $x$ is equal to the difference in x-coordinates (also called run), and the change in $y$ is equal to the difference in y-coordinates (also called rise).

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$

Substitute in the values of $x$ and $y$ into the equation to find the slope.

$m = \frac{- 6 - (- 6)}{2 - (6)}$
