Question

Find the slope of the li
16.) (5,-3), (5,8)

Answer 1

the slope is undefined.

Explanation:

there is an equation (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) that allows for you to determine the slope. since this line is vertical, the slope is defined because if you plug the points into the equation, you would be dividing by 0.

Answer 2

slope = undefined

Explanation:

Find the slope of the line: (5,-3), (5,8)

slope = change in y / change in x

slope = ( -3 - 8) / (5 - 5)

slope = -11/0

slope = undefined

These points graph a vertical line.
