Question

Find the equation of the line using the given information.

The slope is undefined and it passes through the point
(x, y) = (2, 5).

Answer 1

x = 2.

Explanation:

A slope is undefined if the line is vertical .

The slope = difference in y values / difference in x values . Here the x difference is 0 so the slope is y / 0 which is undefined.

So points on the line will have one x coordinate and infinite y coordinates.

Your equation is therefore x = 2.

Answer 2

Answer: x = 2

Explanation:

If the slope is undefined, then there is no "y" in the equation --> x = ___

Since it must pass through (2, 5) notice the x-value is 2, the the equation is: x = 2
