[@Legolasies989]

Question, when doing Rise/Run and selecting the points, how do you know which point to start at? This could be the difference of having a negative or a positive number. Any help would be perfect.

[@EricBuffington]

It doesn't matter which points you start on, you will end up with the exact same slope. Example. If you have a positive slope and you pick a point on the left. The second point will be up and to the right (positive and positive). A positive divided by a positive gives you a positive. If you start on the point on the right, the second point will be down and to the left (negative and negative). A negative divided by a negative gives you a positive. So either way you will get the same slope if you do the division correctly.
