Answer:

Kayla is correct

Explanation:

For a vertical line, the x-value is the same

This means there is no change in the x value

A slope is calculated by dividing by the change in x value

since in this case , we will be dividing by zero, it means that the value of our slope is going to be undefined

This means that Kayla is correct
