The video tutorial explains how to find the equation of a line given two points. It starts with an introduction to the slope-intercept form, Y = MX + B, where M is the slope and B is the Y-intercept. The teacher demonstrates how to use the slope formula, M = (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1), by labeling coordinates and calculating the slope. Finally, the tutorial shows how to identify the Y-intercept from the given points, concluding with the complete line equation.

Which formula is used to calculate the slope between two points?

M = (X1 - X2) / (Y1 - Y2)

M = (Y1 - Y2) / (X1 - X2)

M = (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1)

M = (X2 - X1) / (Y2 - Y1)
