I think you should have an example of how to find the slope, so I made one myself. :]
Find the slope of a line with points: (4,-3) and (-5,4). So like Noa said you do Y2-Y1 over X2-X1. The first step is plugging in the correct coordinates. 4-(-3) over -5-4 would equal: 7 over -9 and that is your slope! you go up seven and to the left nine because it is negative. The end, hope that helps more.
