What is the slope of the line that passes through the points ( 7 , − 4 ) (7,−4) and ( 7 , 0 ) ? (7,0)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

Remember that slope=Δy/Δx=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

Our points are (7,-4) and (7,0)

You can stat at either point but stay consistent!

So slope=[0-(-4)]/[7-7]=4/0=undefined

We know this is the vertical line of x=7 and vertical lines have undefined (or infinite) slope

Hope this helped!
