Question

Write an equation in standard form for the line that has undefined slope and passes through (-6, 4)

Answer 1

y = ix + 6i + 4

Explanation:

Since the line has undefined slope or indefinite slope we connote that the slope is (i)

Slope(m) of straight line = change in y ÷ change in x

Taking another point (x,y) on the line:

i =
`(y - 4)/(x - -6)`

i =
`(y - 4)/(x + 6)`

Cross multiplying gives;

y - 4 = ix + 6i

y = ix + 6i + 4
