Lines that are vertical have no slope (it does not exist). Vertical lines have "rise", but no "run". The rise/run formula for slope always has a zero denominator and is undefined. The equations for these lines describe what is happening to the x-coordinates.

Because lines that are vertical are straight.

Which equation is equivalent to 2/3x-5/6=-5/12x+1/4

umka21 [38]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{3} x - \frac{5}{6} = - \frac{5}{12} x + \frac{1}{4} \\ \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{5}{12} x = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{5}{6} \\ \frac{8}{12} x + \frac{5}{12}x = \frac{3}{12} + \frac{10}{12} \\ \frac{13}{12} x = \frac{13}{12} \\ x = 1$
