In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data

point 1 (10 , - 5) x1 = 10 y1 = -5

point 2 (10, - 9) x2 = 10 y2 = -9

linear equation​ = ?

Step 02:

Slope formula


m\text{ = }\frac{y2\text{ -y1}}{x2-x1}
m\text{ = }(-9-(-5))/(10-10)=(-9+5)/(0)=(-4)/(0)=\infty

The answer is:

The equation of the line is a vertical line in x = 10, since the slope is infinite.
