finding the slope of a line given two points on a graph

The video tutorial explains how to find the slope of a line given a graph with two points. It introduces the concept of slope as a rate of change and demonstrates how to use slope triangles to calculate it. The tutorial covers the mathematical definition of slope as the change in Y over the change in X, and discusses the direction of slope, whether positive or negative. Example problems are provided to illustrate the process of determining slope using rise over run, emphasizing the importance of understanding both the vertical and horizontal changes between points.
