Why does a horizontal have a slope of 0, but a vertical line has an undefined slope?

Mathematics
1 answer:
miskamm [114]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The slope of a vertical line. A vertical line has undefined slope because all points on the line have the same x-coordinate. As a result the formula used for slope has a denominator of 0, which makes the slope undefined.

A horizontal line has slope 0 because all its points have the same y-coordinate. As a result, the formula used for slope evaluates to 0.

Hope that helps!

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Slope = -2

Y intercept = 4

Equation. y = -2x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using points, (1,2) and (3,-2)

Slope = (-2-2)/(3-1) = -4/2 = -2

Y intercept = 4

-2 = (y-3)/(x-1)

-2(x-1) = y-3

-2x +2 = y-3

y = -2x +2 +3

y = -2x +5
