Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through (1, 4) and (1, −3)? (1 point)

Answer 1

Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

$\boxed{slope = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} }$

Slope of the line

$= \frac{4 - ( - 3)}{1 - 1}$

$= \frac{7}{0}$

(undefined)

Notice that the two points have the same x-coordinate of 1. This means that the line is a vertical line, and vertical lines have undefined slopes.

Answer 2

Answer:

Undefined slope

Step-by-step explanation:

(1, 4) and (1, −3)

Slope:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-3-4)/(1-1)

m=(-7)/0

When 0 is the denominator, there's no slope since it's undefined.

Undefined slope
