00:01 Okay, so given the following points, 0, negative 10, and negative 4, 0, so let's let the first point be x1, y1, and then the second point will be x2, y2.
00:24 Now, to calculate the slope of the line that goes through these two points, so m, or the slope is, so we calculated by y2 minus y1 over, x2 minus x1.
00:38 So if we follow this formula, we'll get 0 minus negative 10, which then just becomes 0 plus 10...
