• Slope Formula:
  `\displaystyle m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-4, 7)

Point (10, 14)

Step 2: Find slope m

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

1. Substitute in points [SF]:
   `\displaystyle m=(14-7)/(10+4)`
2. [Fraction] Subtract/Add:
   `\displaystyle m=(7)/(14)`
3. [Fraction] Divide:
   `\displaystyle m=(1)/(2)`
