Ariel was told the x intercept and the y intercept of a line with a positive slope. Yet, it was impossible for Ariel to find the slope of the line. What can you conclude about this line?

A line has the following standard equation form:

y = m x + b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

So if Ariel cannot find the slope, then this would only mean that m = 0, there is no slope. And hence the line is either a straight vertical line or straight horizontal line.

Answer:

There is no slope
