Here is your answer:

Look at it this way:

  • 5 - 5 = 0
  • Using the slope formula you would see that this line is vertical.
  • According to the rules for solving slope when a line is vertical that would mean that it's undefined.

Therefore the answer is the first option "undefined."

Hope this helps!
