The formula used to calculate the slope of a line given the coordinates on the line is given to be:


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Given the points:


\begin{gathered} (x_1,y_1)=(8,9) \\ (x_2,y_2)=(8,1) \end{gathered}

Therefore, we can calculate the slope to be:


\begin{gathered} m=(1-9)/(8-8)=(-8)/(0) \\ m=undefined \end{gathered}

Therefore, the slope is undefined.
