The video tutorial explains how to calculate the slope between two points using the slope formula. It begins by introducing the formula and identifying the coordinates of the points. The instructor then demonstrates the calculation process, including subtracting the y-values and x-values, and simplifying the result to find the slope. The lesson concludes with a positive slope value and a brief summary of the steps involved.

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

m = (x1 - x2) / (y1 - y2)

m = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)

m = (x2 - x1) / (y2 - y1)

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
